Hello,

While not a Debian VirtualBox maintainer, let me answer.

Init scripts are obviously a big missing piece, when it comes to
VirtualBox, so I'm glad that you stand-up to contribute those.

1. There are init scripts in existence in both (1) vboxtool project
and in (2) phpvirtualbox projects.
I suggest you to take a look at them
2. Since init scripts are not part of the official VirtualBox release,
maybe it would be better to package them separately, perhaps into
"virtualbox-init" package.
