Do we only want to create tasks for "advanced" apps? I think it would
be nicer to have tasks for everything that could be called at bootup,
like the task Alsactl or SSHD. The action can be called with one line
(alsactl restore (or restore) and /System/Links/Executables/sshd (or
killall sshd)) but I think it's nicer to have Alsactl start/stop and
SSHD start/stop.
