Yes please! I've been waiting for this for a while, as it will greatly
simplify my rc.conf on a whole bunch of jail hosts. I've spoken with
bz@ about this at eurobsdcon in November 2011 and he agreed that it
is a missing feature, so I suspect it is a matter of time before your
patch is picked up by a committer. Thank you for your work!


Best regards

ps. bz@ cc'ed so he sees this thread
