This doesn't sound like that bad of idea, although "what does the user expect" is a concern. My co-worker brought up the simple issue of the log files. Do you automatically pick a different log file to store to, or does it store to the same log, or is it the user's responsibility to pick a reasonable different log file name in the .conf file? I have no idea what other daemons/init scripts do.
