I would prefer not to have the service management available through
Vega... I give my end users access to VegaDNS I wouldn't want them to
have such control...

An inherent service monitoring tool wouldn't be so bad. I'm already
using spong though to monitor servers.

Why would you want to add/remove services from a running server,
especially production? It would make sense for a general network/server
administration tool that allowed you to provision services to servers 
or re-provision them as needed, but you would probably want to include
FTP, HTTP, and email administration if you were working on such a tool.

It would be nice to have such a tool and an intuitive control panel in
the vein of VegaDNS for all of these things. 

but inter7 I think is already on that ball with vHostAdmin, but I still
haven't found an admin tool that does it all well, even on the
commercial market.
