This would indeed be a great feature to have. We use separate devices
for each client (on-disk volumes for full and incr. jobs), and
currently we have to wait for all jobs to complete before reloading
the sd in order to configure the new devices. A reload triggered by
sending the sd a signal would be very cool.
