Can I again suggest that ports that stop their daemons on deinstall should (MUST) try to (re-)start them upon install?

Or that they simply quit doing that and instead print a message like "Port X is deinstalled but it may have some processes running, please do Y and/or Z to find them and/or stop them".

We've seen some much better solutions being proposed (configurable behavior, etc), but their implementation would take some time and the current status quo is a real PITA.

Thank you very much for your attention.
