I wonder what the benefit would be. Now I find it's useful that rsync parses the rsyncd.conf at connect time, not when the daemon is started. The overhead of rsync starting a new process to handle a client is also a lot lower relative to the disk IO resulting from any transfer as well; especially compared to a typical apache situation where a page view may result is multiple parallel HTTP connections to the server.
