The same basic commentary applies to this as it does to the `graceful` 
equivalent: having more and more boolean values representing what is really a 
"pick one" option is terrible.  This should unify the various "please restart 
like this" options in a sane way, and until then folks can work around it by 
explicitly setting the command by hand.

Feature #1014: Services should support 'reload' in addition to 'restart'

currently if a service needs kicking (e.g. a config file changed) you can 
notify the service, but this leads to a restart.  It would be nice if a reload 
was done if the service was already running (although I suppose there are bound 
to be some services which require restarts for some files, reloads for others).

A reload would be far faster (shorter service interruption) and potentially 
more robust.

I'm looking at this since bind stop/start (I hadn't set "hasrestart") on Debian 
etch can fail - it looks like stop command doesn't wait for bind to exit (I'll 
raise a bug with Debian about that)
