Is there a "real restart" command (not stop then start) ?

[Jérémy Lecour]

Hi,

I've been using Monit for some years and I've always be happy with it. Thanks 
for making this great piece of software.

Lately I've been using some services that accept different "actions" than start 
and stop, for example a USR2 signal to do a rolling restart (just like a 
"reload").
An example is the Unicorn application server (in Ruby).

I monitor the different master processes with Monit, but I can only do "start" 
or "stop" but nothing else.
So if I want to do a rolling restart, I have to log into the server and send 
the signal.

It would be great if we could define custom actions.
