How hard would it be to write an external wrapper that converts the systemd style socket activation to the SIGSTOP protocol (for upstart invoking a systemd compatible daemon)? Or to add support to start-stop-daemon for both protocols so a reliable sysv style script is trivial for more modern daemons?
