o If it succeeds, the unit that needs to reach %i gets launched and my 
reachable-retry@ *does not* enter SUCCESS or whatever "good" state you can 
think of: it just stays asleep until someone else wants to recheck later if 
the domain is still reachable (e.g. domain goes down, my ISP goes crazy, I 
suspend my computer...).

network-online.target does not fulfill these requirements. It stays in 
"SUCCESS" across suspend/resume cycles. Therefore, it is *not* a correct 
indicator.
