Ideally, update-rc.d would provide an API to query the enabled|disabled
state of the SysV init script and if that existed we definitely should
use that.
Lacking this API, we can deduce this state ourselves, by applying the
same algorithm as the sysv-generator.
The downside of this approach though, is that we would pull in SysV
specific knowledge into the systemd core, and we should really try to
avoid that.

Martin, how exactly would you use the state in /run state derive the
enabled/disabled state of the service?
