Comment (by nickm):

 We've thought about this a few times, and so far we've only found two ways
 to handle errors on reload:
    * If we exit on reload when the configuration has an error, then people
 complain that we exit. (This is the current situation.)
    * If we '''don't''' exit on reload when the configuration has an error,
 then people complain that they didn't realize there was an error in their
 configuration, and  they have no idea why their configuration changes
 aren't working.

 We do support incremental reversible changes via the controller interface;
 maybe something like nyx would be right for you?
