I don't understand why you can't do whatever you want anyway.
You can run Node.js as PID 1 even if it is dynamically linked - you
just need to have the libc (and ld-musl.so) in the filesystem. It
will work. You can run anything as PID 1 provided all its dependencies
are there at boot time. Traditional inits are usually dynamically
linked - which I think is a very bad idea, but that's another subject.
If Node.js is a special case that cannot be treated that way, then I'm
interested in hearing why.
