This is necessary to prevent a race. Udev 197 has a new naming scheme
for network devices, so it will rename (say) eth0 to eno0. This fails
with "error changing net interface name eth0 to eno1: Device or
resource busy" if another process has opened the interface in the
meantime.
This reverts commit 1e741f1572b6793b861e2f9820015475ce339ae0 as it is
unnecessary according to @edolstra, because services.xserver.config from another
module will be merged into the configuration.

This is currently only a very simple implementation which just recurses a list
of heads that get chained together to the right of the corresponding previous
item of the list.
If I forgot about something in the already existing configuration options,
please let me know or if this commit is useless or a duplicate, feel free to
revert. But by looking at implementation before this commit, I only see zaphod
and/or quirky xinerama-like configuration options.

Starting an authenticated root shell is a security hole, so don't do
it by default. The kernel command line parameter
‘initrd.shell_on_fail’ restores the original. (Of course, this only
improves security if you have a password on GRUB to prevent the kernel
command line from being edited by unauthorized users.)
The 'memtest86' package didn't work on any of my machines. 'memtest86plus', on
the other hand, seems to work just fine. Does anyone know why we keep the
seemingly older version around still?
This is especially useful if you want to supply a default XRandR configuration,
where you need multiple "Monitor" sections in order to set properties for
specific CRTCs (if not running in zaphod mode).

The "S|s|single" option is handled by systemd (starting
rescue.target). And the rescue target basically removes the need for
a special debug shell. (Also, there is "systemd.crash_shell=1" for
starting a shell if systemd crashes.)
Also, symlink kbrequest.target to rescue.target as suggested by the
systemd.special manpage. This way, you can start a sulogin rescue
shell by pressing Alt+Up.
Restarting <interface>-cfg.service may cause the interface's IP
addresses to be flushed. If the default gateway goes through that
interface, then the default gateway is deleted. So we need to
restart network-setup.target.
This allows setting the max tcp window size for the route of
the default gateway (usually the internet access).
It works only for non-DHCP configurations by now.
To be honest, it's more like "be less discriminating against USB tablets".
USB tablets usually get autodetected, device name is not necessary and defaulting to a serial touchscreen is a clear discrimination.
Unconditionally remapping buttons is generally not a good idea either.
Old defaults transformed into examples.
During a configuration switch, changed units are stopped in the old
configuration, then started in the new configuration (i.e. after
running the activation script and running "systemctl daemon-reload").
This ensures that services are stopped using the ExecStop/ExecStopPost
commands from the old configuration.
However, for some services it's undesirable to stop them; in
particular dhcpcd, which deconfigures its network interfaces when it
stops. This is dangerous when doing remote upgrades - usually things
go right (especially because the switch script ignores SIGHUP), but
not always (see 9aa69885f0). Likewise,
sshd should be kept running for as long as possible to prevent a
lock-out if the switch fails.
So the new option ‘stopIfChanged = false’ causes "systemctl restart"
to be used instead of "systemctl stop" followed by "systemctl start".
This is only proper for services that don't have stop commands. (And
it might not handle dependencies properly in some cases, but I'm not
sure.)
