Then you can just as easily nuke the entire mailer.conf principle and symlink bin/postfix to etc/rc.d/050.postfix.sh.
This is actually one of the two recommended ways of starting postfix (and the one I prefer). The main reason for mailer.conf to exist is that a lot of scripts have /usr/sbin/sendmail hardcoded and TPTB decided that they didn't want to use 'use.perl port'-style symlinks.

But all these seem like such hacks. It would be so much cleaner to move sendmail.sh out of the way and just add postfix.sh to /etc/rc.d, rather than using tricks with symlinks and rc.conf variables. If you have a small number of ports added, it's not a big deal. But all these hacks get confusing when you have a lot of ports, each doing it's own special trick.
The mailer.conf issue (for mail injection) is a separate issue and there's really no way around that.
