well, that's a no-go

my idea is not any generic and collecting thing

it is more that have a config file where the "professional user" can
manually add application paths which are caught by "systemd-readahead"

P.S.:
yes i know about "preload" but since systemd assimilates mayn things
in the past few years including readahead i feel this would be the
right direction to make "systemd-readahead" complete and sadly
i am a webdeveloper and can not provide code/patches :-(
