    I had a quick look at the systemd dbus API (which I assume is close
    to what systemctl uses) and there are no easy way to queue multiple
    "starts" into one job<br>
    <br>
    There is a single StartUnit (+varient) method which can only take a
    single unit. no queuing mechanism, way to create ajob without
    triggering it or other workaround<br>
    <br>
    So yes, to get this to work as expected a new API probably needs to
    be added.<br>
    <br>
    Alternatively, systemctl could create an Transient, temporary unit
    with the correct relationship (Wants, Conflicts,
    ReloadPropagatedFrom) and start that unit, pulling in the ones on
    the command line. Not sure if that's a good approch. Just stating
    that it's possible...<br>

Please try to be polite when you are in a situation where you could be
perceived as representing a community. Responses like this to discussion
of a technical issue do not help systemd's reputation, and using jargon
terms precisely is a useful way to describe how code works.

For what it's worth, I think I agree with the technical point you were
making, which (if I understand correctly) is that it would be better for
each "systemctl start" invocation to create a single transaction (job)
that will start all the units named on the command-line in an order
chosen by the systemd manager to respect their Before/After ordering.

Thanks,
