Consider this a vote for the use of tmpfs-config(5) in initscripts,
since tmpfs(5<whatever>) will require "apropos tmpfs" anyway to find it.

Actually, in hindsight, that /etc/default/tmpfs config file was a bad
idea.  It should have always been "either override in /etc/fstab or
stick with the defaults".
