I don't see why this should be a requirement either. Most operating
systems have an abstraction layer on top of the daemon, such as RedHat's
'service' command, or FreeBSD's rc.subr framework. Use that as the
common abstraction, not HUP signals (if it's commonality you're looking
for).

Would your SQL scheme support modifying any configuration item,
including module specific ones?
