The change here is new and needs a different way, yes. Nothing against
that. But the same result has been reached before in a far easier way,
it's not only a new way, it's a more complicated way. That's the
point.

</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Editing a text file to change a number, eg. from &quot;5&quot; to &quot;3&quot;, is much easier to remember than changing a symlink to &quot;/lib/systemd/system/runlevel3.target&quot;, especially when explaning this to a not so advanced user over the phone, who doesn't have a working X at the moment. (Yes, I actually do have such support calls.)
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> The support departments are just going to love this. ;-)=

</I>&gt;<i> Is there anyone who stops you to contribute a script that does this for the user?
</I>
Yes, you see that correctly: a script which is needed because the
proper way is a regression in usability :)

Don't misunderstand me - if this change is needed because of another
change then it's ok by me. But that does not mean I have to be over
enthousisastic about something which makes things not easier but quite
the contrary.
