 * BGPROCESS services:
   - document security issue if pid file is not correctly protected (via access
     rights/ownership).
-  - consider using ptrace to attach to process (if not a direct child - which we can
-    check with a probe waitpid() call); this allows us to get status of non-child
-    processes. Probably need dasynq changes.
-  - currently we break if the process is not a child; we'll never see it die. Even
-    if we don't attach with ptrace, we should waitpid()-probe it at stop (and then
-    potentially assume it's exited if we can't otherwise check).
 
 * libev replacement:
   - We've replaced libev, so that we don't abort on failure. But now exceptions
     can be thrown when we register an event watch - need to handle these.
-  - Control socket handling needs to be reworked.
-  - Service I/O / child process waits need to be audited.
