There will be a rc.d implementation in 4.9, this was done by Robert Nagy at the p2k10 ports hackathon I believe.

We can only hope that this implementation will be better than the offerings of other systems, I know that rc.d scripts are unaesthetically pleasing on Linux.
Personally I believe that one should learn the base utilities over blindly executing some scripts in /etc/rc.d, other OpenBSD users may agree with me.
