Right now we have three afp.conf options that all need to be turned on to enable Spotlight.
spotlight
start tracker
start dbus
The two latter were added in https://sourceforge.net/p/netatalk/feature-requests/91/ with little context. I can't immediately think of a reason why you'd ever enable spotlight with also wanting to have tracker and dbus running. Maybe there was some corner case bug or instability early on when spotlight functionality was fresh?
Anyhow, I think these three should be compressed into a single option.

That's a good point. So there may be a case for controlling the indexer dbus separately.
Can you see a reason for keeping spotlight and tracker (indexer) as separate options? The only reason I can think of would be if we in the future introduced support for multiple indexing backends, and controlled the active backend dynamically rather than at compile time. E.g. #1409
But at that point the option shouldn't be called start tracker but rather something like indexer backend.
