I think having ‘reload’ actions for nginx, dovecot, etc. whereby the
daemon reloads its config without stopping still makes sense.

I wonder if the patch as-is would achieve that though, because in
general those daemons are run with ‘-c /gnu/store/…-config’, so
reloading would just reload the same file.
