Kill `parallel-port` tag with fire

Odd tags... well, rather keyboard keys tags
I've found a couple of odd tags, starting with alt which I believe would have more sense if used keyboard instead (yeah, 101 tags for each key in the keyboard is overkill) but the funny thing is that it's …

Can the sysv tag be deleted?
We should synonymize with init since both are intrinsically related (if you are doing a SysV-like script, is likely you will use it for init).

Can the sysv tag be deleted?
Since this could be dragout, can we just rename the tag to sysv-init. That way we are very clear that we are talking about System V init scripts, which seems to be the topic of the questions.
