Comment(by rmstonecipher@…):

 On the other end of things, ports with startupitems usually work best when
 their startupitems are loaded.[[br]]
 If the port with a startupitem is several steps ahead of the user's
 requested port install, the "load the startupitem" note may be
 missed.[[br]]
 Could the user be cut out of this equation by auto-loading startupitems
 during the activate phase?[[br]]
 This would work for ports with startupitems which work as-is, but others
 may experience one or more of the following problems:
  * some ports use both user- and system-level startupitems (e.g. dbus)
  * some ports have configuration files that must be edited before running
 the daemon/startupitem[[br]]
 What other issues could auto-loading startupitems cause?[[br]][[br]]
