Hi Danny!

The =E2=80=98start=E2=80=99 method should of =E2=80=98term-auto=E2=80=99 sh=
ould be able to register a
new service and to call its =E2=80=98start=E2=80=99 method.  I haven=E2=80=
=99t tried but it
should work.

That would allow us to make =E2=80=98term-auto=E2=80=99 one-shot, which wou=
ld be nicer!

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
