I want to be able to have other services depend on it. I don't think that I would be able to use 'sv check' in those dependant service run scripts if the config service has already exited.
I also have a ./finish script that undoes all the configuration, so I don't want ./finish to run unless I really want my "service" to be down. From reading the sv man page it seems like./finish would get run if I brought up my "service" with sv once.
