Thomas Woerner would be the one to work out those guidelines. But to explain ... apparently there are two firewalld "environments". When you install a service file it only affects the installed environment (used after a reboot) and not the current "runtime environment". This means that a user can't immediately use your service definition in a command like: $ firewall-cmd --add-service=cockpit The command: $ firewall-cmd --reload ... makes newly installed service files available in the runtime environment. I guess this is sorta analogous to 'systemctl daemon-reload'.
