That said, I think it would be fine to commit one or more optional stopgap measures/scripts to the RC system, for mobile users and etc., as long as it is well documented that they may go away if a better solution is developed or derived.
not to flamebait or something - but: wouldn't the system crontab be a better place? or perhaps create an /etc/periodic/hourly ? the 'newsyslog' is in /etc/crontab which is the only hourly job I can think of off hand.. the script can still of course source rc.conf or something to configure the job if the job is enabled by default
