users shouldn't be doing this... its the job of the people writing the RA

you've lost me.

you want changes to a resource's attribute to be sent to the resource
but not cause a restart.... thats exactly what this does.

what you can't do is have the attribute behave one way and then the
other later on.

either an attribute needs a restart to take effect or not - and the
person writing the RA should decide that, not the user
