Hello! I use triggers in rygel (which is a service that runs inside the user desktop session) package to handle two things:
1) Detect changes in plugin folder and send SIGHUP to get rygel to restart itself and activate/deactivate the newly installed/uninstalled plugins. 2) Send SIGHUP to running rygel instances to restart itself on upgrades. The second part could just as well be done through postinst, but since the first part is best handled with triggers both are triggers. The entire purpose is to make everything as seamless as possible for the end user..... and handle potential future security updates, so people will actually be secure after installing security updates and not have old vulnerable services running even after installing the security update.
