For the first part, any daemon chrooting (like HAProxy, lldpd). For the
second part, it's just killing by name is fragile. Supervisors or PID
files should be used instead. start-stop-daemon makes it easy to get a
PID file for a program not able to provide one.

I have now uploaded src:lsb to experimental with Harald's patch. I'm not 
comfortable yet to target buster, I must say, nor do I really have time to 
test this extensively.

Vincent: what scenario did you have in mind?
