+Proof-of-concept systemd environment generator that makes sure that bin dirs
+are always after matching sbin dirs in the path.
+(Changes /sbin:/bin:/foo/bar to /bin:/sbin:/foo/bar.)
+
+This generator shows how to override the configuration possibly created by
+earlier generators. It would be easier to write in bash, but let's have it
+in Python just to prove that we can, and to serve as a template for more
+interesting generators.
