I was just about to recommend doing it in a similar way.
It's not too tricky to make a service in linux if your application isn't
already one.
A rough outline would be:

Nope not wrong at all.
I would probably recommend putting them in separate subclasses and then
using class chaining or require => Class[blah::service] etc
to make it easier to add new packages or services later but the theory is
the same.
