> - rename rc.xxxx to just xxxxx?

No, we keep the syntax "rc.xxxx", because
it is like the standard Unix "rc.local" etc. files
and allows easy grepping for developers, etc. pp.

> - provide %status in all packages

Not done, new ticket will be created.

> - "rc -v" should output "OpenPKG: apache bind foo"

Done, but without "-v". Instead "-s" silent disabled this
default output and output syntax is "OpenPKG: <cmd>: <pkg>, <pkg>, <pkg>.

> - rc.func additions: signal (via rpmtool signal)
>   rotate (via shtool rotate), checkpid 

Does not provide a lot of improvement, because
rpmtool is already in $PATH for run-command scripts
and hence can easily be used without wrappers.

> - run-command scripts should support
>   %restart
>      %stop; sleep1; %start

Done, but differently: "rc" is now in $PATH
for run-command scripts, so the syntax for the above is

"rc myself stop; sleep 1; rc myself start"
