The init script isn't ordered and does not declare any dependencies as fso-
deviced doesn't need the framework.
The init script didn't start fso-deviced on boot for you - correct?

Dependency-wise it seems to me that fso-deviced feeds information to the 
framework. fso-usaged is only a dbus-service. When the first app requests 
something from usaged and dbus sees that it isn't started it will start it.
Both fso-deviced and fso-framework use fso-usaged so whoever comes first will 
make dbus start it.
As fso-deviced isn't accessed by the framework by default but the other way 
around it has to be started by an init script.

don't ask me about naming conventions ;-)
And please see my "where no man (except shr) has gone before" mail for my 
config stolen from the shr-guys.
