You shouldn't need to manage it as a service; it's auto-started
and killing it is harmless in most cases.  I'm considering it
have it auto-exit if it stays idle for a long time and there's
no active inotify watches.

lei-daemon doesn't start until any other lei command is invoked;
so it shouldn't be started on installation.

Thats a lot of tail processes....
I wonder if they were spawned by `lei q -v' for emitting curl stderr?
They should be auto-killed.
(or if you have some other reason for running tail on your system).
