Actually the problem is run time mysqld dependency.
The option REQUIRE: mysql is not efficient here. I'm not sure what/how
mysql is started, but zoneminder can not start right after mysql is
up. If I use 5 seconds pause, zoneminder starts successfully at 50%
of bootings. Ten seconds pause is enough to start zoneminder.

So, this delay is needed  only at machine booting time. I'm not sure if
start_precmd is any way better here.
