Right, but that should only be done by services which depend on
network-online.target IMHO, *not* network.target. The former is done
by ifup-wait-all-auto.service. I. e. we don't need to block services
which merely want network.target on all interfaces to be up.
That's at least the intention. Did I misunderstand you?
