Perhaps the start-stop-programs module can be extended to support in-line
commands to be executed on state changes, in addition to the service
start/stop support that is already there? I must say that the service
starting/stopping support is a bit complicated to configure, it's well
suited for starting/stopping services that have an init script, but not easy
to configure for much else...
