My agreement was with point 1. I don't agree with point 2, as that is a diversion from the libcgroup upstream and debian package. They do not simply want all cgroups mounted separately by default. Rather, they want it to be very configurable. So I wouldn't object strongly to adding the extra cgroups to the configuration file (though I think that change should simply be done through debian), but I think it is wrong to change how the cgroups are mounted.

The libcgroup package was never simply a package to mount all cgroups and provide set/get cgroup settings. It has a specific purpose (which it cannot quite meet in a race-free way) of flexible, configurable cgroup management by users, groups, and programs.

Perhaps what you'd actually like is to add a simple cgroup set/get program to cgroup-lite.

I am going to mark this bug incomplete while awaiting your feedback on the following proposal: I'd like to change the title of this bug to simply be 'cgconfig upstart job should start earlier', and make that change and p and q. (Then merge debian's new version into q). Point 2 I'd like to be handled through debian.
