Most init.d scripts are expected to support all of start, stop, etc. options. But there are a small number of scripts which are obvious exceptions to this rule: restart, reboot, single, mountall.sh and so on.
It would be really nice to have a paragraph in policy distinguishing between these cases and the rest of them, but I've no idea what it should say. Does anyone have any ideas?
