I don't disagree, but we've already got three scripts like this in
/etc/rc.d (dhclient, power_profile, and wpa_supplicant) so I don't think
it's a big deal.  IMO, the conf files are find (though I don't like the
idea of a .sample in /etc/rc.conf.d).  There is some argument for moving
the scripts to another directory though.   I'm not sure what we'd call
it though.
