Well, as you might have gathered by the fact that I sent a diff,
I took into account that this small change could go into
netstart to just support such operations out of the box.

It's however not up to me to decide this. If the majority of
relevant people do think this is bloat, I can get along with
it. Consider it a suggestion. On the other hand, it would not 
harm nor complicate netstart really.
