I can't say it's a convenience, at least not more or less than the files it
tries to replace.
whatever the number of init script / service files, we need to instruct the
system which NUT components it has to start.
And having a way to do it the same across systems is worth IMHO.

that being said, the shell approach doesn't satisfy me much, but was a good
compromise for a first round.
part of the work around the configuration, we might consider a config
accessor, like:
$ nut-config --get-mode

@Michal: would that suit systemd way of life?
a side question: what is the status of Augeas (still RH sponsored project)
in Fedora / RedHat?

cheers,
Arnaud
