Dear KatolaZ,
I probably didn't express things properly. My idea was precisely a
way to workaround the issue you say. The idea was to modify the existing
sysv-init scripts so that, while remaining 100% compatible with
sysv-init, they become also usable by supervisors. If it proved possible
and a standard method was agreed on, then I am convinced the authors of
these daemons would do it upstream.
Alas, supervision experts don't think it is possible :-(
