That design is inconsistent with how services work in general on Linux systems
though, which makes them counter-intuitive for sysadmins. 

I know I've frequently been frustrated by Koha's koha-* scripts due to how
their start/stop/restart is different.

Fair point about it being inconsistent across the scripts though...

I think making the koha-* scripts more in line with Linux services is a very
good reason though. I'm sure it would spare many sysadmins many headaches...
