That's... not the word I'd have used.
I'm sort-of-emulating this using custom scripts quite often,
and especially with the stacked runlevel variety, this is something I  
really would like to have.


http://www.funtoo.org/wiki/Stacked_Runlevels shows the possibility of  
multiple network configs, too,
if I read this right, i could have

	# rc online
with 2 children:

	# rc online-devel
vs	# rc online-demo

to have the same services, but different network settings, without  
(un)commenting lines in rc.conf before and after the on-site demonstration.
