#1880: Graceful *restart* of the master in addition to existing graceful shutdown
------------------------+----------------------

    Type:  enhancement  |     Status:  new
Priority:  major        |  Milestone:  0.9.+
 Version:  0.8.3p1      |   Keywords:  reconfig
------------------------+----------------------
 exarkun would like to be able to click something like the graceful-
 shutdown button on the master, with the expectation that it will restart
 when the shutdown is complete.

 This would be similar to the reconfig-by-graceful-restart support I hope
 to have sometime in the [milestone:0.10.+ 0.10.+] timeframe.

 It may be worth building out a system where the buildmaster is composed of
 a parent "supervisor" process that can manage this sort of activity.  It
 may even be worthwhile to implement this by essentially subclassing the
 {{{twistd}}} command-line tool (rather than invoking it)
