Depending on what's going on, I've run rc scripts in single user mode
to diagnose issues and/or get my machine(s) up to limping state, but
by and large that's not a supported model (and thus I have booted my
machine into quasi-multiuser mode).

Just wanted to say that there are other folks out there using rc
scripts for `non-standard' multiuser scenarios :).
