One vulnerablility I've noticed in Nagios is that restarting via a
HUP or a external command can be dangerous; if the 'new'
configuration is broken in any way Nagios will die. It occurs
to me that it would be very handy if Nagios performed a
preflight on the new configuration before attempting to load it
as the 'live' config. That way Nagios won't go down if the new
config isn't valid.

Thanks,
