Something I'd consider important (since it allows on-the fly reconfiguration) would be a true "reload" functionality in the init script (config file of server or client, respective, re-read and changes applied to current setup of deamon/userspace client). In the traditional manner, this would require the server/client to handle a SIGHUP. (Actually, the code is already there, but SIGHUP would "only" rotate the logs.) Any chance?
