An alternative to reverting the /etc/init.d/monit to Lenny behaviour
might be to add a new variable to /etc/default/monit
MONIT_OPTS="-d 180"
# We default to 180s (3min) check intervals

That way /etc/init.d/monit might have a line
ARGS="$MONIT_OPTS -c $CONFIG -s /var/lib/monit/monit.state"

This maintains the behaviour that people are used to from stable Debian,
and also might allow the flexibility to meet wishlist #541425

For very specific local requirement where a user needs to introduce a
start delay,
then emptying MONIT_OPTS
so that MONIT_OPTS='' in /etc/default/monit
allows the setting of any non regular settiing through other means

ssh has a similar system
#grep OPTS /etc/default/ssh
SSHD_OPTS=
( on some systems SSHD_OPTS is non empty to meet a local requirement )
Experienced ssh users will know where to set enviroment variables and
per user ssh config files, if they want something very specific.
