There are some packages that directly package the symlink in e.g.
multi-user.target.wants. I suppose that shouldn't be done in favor
of the macro then?
I think it would be better if the "default enable flag" was an
actual entry in the config file though. That would allow to easily
check whether an existing system has all mandatory services enabled
and to reset it to the default state if needed.
Also, being able to parse an ini file rather than some script
language makes an rpmlint check easier and more reliable :-)

What about packages that have both .service and .socket? Prefer .socket?
