It occurred to me that a gmidctl(8) could be useful to delay actions after the configuration has been actually reloaded. Constructs like

$ pkill -HUP gmid
$ sleep 1
$ do-something-that-expects-the-new-config

are racy. (we do this in the regression test for example.)

However, setting up a local and writing a control utility just to load (and maybe dump) the configuration its' overkill.

There are other use-cases that would be solved by introducing gmidctl?
