Stijn,

my intention was to not change the current behavior by default, so an extra 
switch or extending an existing switch looked like the way. I've choosen the 
lazy one, based on "when the user is storing the packages-list, he is for sure 
interested in the services".
But I'm happy to add a separate switch to sysupgrade. Any preference of the 
letter? What about using "-s"?
