I resend some of this because I think it is inportant,
and for some reason it didn't make it to the list.

Excellent point. I might then condider something like:
The circumsiances in which the restart process would be initiated are:
* program failure of the unit
* killall issued on the unit
* killall issued on another unit that this unit Requires (? I am
guessing)
* etc., make the list complete
The circumsiances in which the restart process would NOT be initiated are:
* The Stop commnd is issued to the unit
* The Stop command is issued to another unit that this unit Requires
* etc., make the list complete
I find bullet lists easy to read quickly, but other formats are acceptable
***provided the information given is clear and complete***.
In my long experience as a reader of numerous man pages, often too much is
left to trial and error.
Mike.
