If I understand this correctly, does this mean that we will soon be able
to remove rc.d/ script references from PLISTs, because they will be
automatically recorded?

(If so, that is good; and I was already doing that myself on a few systems
too.)

That would be like the autoregistration of etc/ configs in PLISTs.
