Not that this is directly related to the server team, but the other day, we were discussing on IRC about the difference of start,stop and restart.
Me and others had no idea restart ain't always the same of stop and the restart.

Since we already improving the Status, can also the Restart at least echo a message warning the user that such XPTO script doesn't actually restart?
