This is a feature request more than a bug: I would really like to see
the ability to run the emacs server daemon ("emacs --daemon") in the
foreground.  This would be very useful.  I would like to be able to
start/control this daemon with a service supervisor (i.e. runit [0]).
This would allow me to easily start the daemon on system start up, and
have access to the daemon from all xsessions and virtual terminals.

I would also be prefer to be able to specify daemon parameters as
well, such as the location of the socket file.

I find the new server to be incredibly useful.  It is a really great
new feature.  I would just like to see these small changes so that I
can really turn my editor into the server it needs to be.

Thanks for all the great work, and let me know if I can provide any
additional information.
