Well, here's the (simple) user-created unit file at the bottom of the bug thread, and maybe it would be as easy as replacing "ExecStop" by "ExecStart" for your wish to be fulfilled (or maybe not, I'm unfamiliar with systemd unit files and how they get that way, to tell the truth). But if something as trivial as this can't be hacked effectively by our illustrious system administrators, we may as well just abandon ship.
