loop in apachectl

Can someone motivate the for loop in apachectl 
for me?

I'd like to change it apachectl so I can pass
args to the server.

That -C switch is very nice.

Motivate it?  No, but I can tell you the reason for it.  <g>

If you want to stop and start Apache, you can do "apachectl stop start". 
There are a bunch of combinations you can do; start status, etc.  Well,
you could if it was written right.  You need a 5s sleep or something
between multiple commands.
