Feature #22654: Add a 'graceful restart' option to the Puppet master 
init-scripts

----------------------------------------
When you change a Puppet function, the Puppet master requires a restart to load 
the new version of the Puppet function.
If you restart the Puppet master, active puppet runs are affected.
Active file transfers are interrupted which leaves the Puppet agent with 
corrupt files.

This could be avoided if the Puppet master could do a 'graceful' restart.
The Puppet master would have to stay up while there are active puppet runs.
It should not start building new catalogs for newly incoming catalog-requests 
from Agents.
After all the active Puppet runs have finished the Puppet master could do a 
restart.

In order to realize this the Puppet master must (somehow) be able to find out 
if there are active puppet runs.

A different solution would be the possibility to change Puppet functions 
without a restart of the Puppet master. ;)
