The original aim of this commit is that starting machines.target from the rescue shell would not kill the rescue shell and lock you out of the system. This is similar to commit 6579a622, for the conflict between sysinit.target and the _emergency_ shell. That particular commit introduced an ordering cycle and will need to be reverted and/or fixed. This one does not, because it does not need to introduce any new dependencies. The reason why this commit is allowable also has it's own merit: machines.target was not marked as AllowIsolate. Also, the point of containers is to not escape them... I don't think we want to promote machines.target as a default target or similar; you would generally want some system service to allow you to shut down the machine, for example. I don't see this approach used in CoreOS, nor in Fedora Atomic Host; we are missing any positive examples of its utility. Requires=basic.target / After=basic.target can be removed for the same reason.
