We very much recognize that absence of tests is what makes it hard to figure 
out what to do here.  There are multiple bugs on these, bug 7 asks for the 
tests, bug 43 asks for a clarification on where install_initd is to be found 
(answered), bug 244 points out we don't have a sample implementation (which 
would be delivered in /the/ Sample Implementation, and bug 245 points out that 
the application battery, which could at least provide a "touch test" for this 
functionality, does not.  It's so bad that we think there have been certified 
systems (perhaps only at LSB 1.2) that didn't even provide the commands, but no 
indicator actually detected that.

I was going to propose that we develop the tests in "the formal way" but using 
a wiki page to do it collaboratively, because we want a good example of how 
this works anyway.  That is, write the assertions, review them, code the tests 
to the assertions, along the way find out if it even makes sense to write a set 
of assertions to the spec as written.  If there's something closer than 
starting this from scratch, then by all means proceed, or if Tobias wants to 
use that forum for building these things, great. If this is of interest, I'll 
make the page and add the link here.
