Comment(by va1en0k):

 Well, main use case for me to to kill the process and run it again (or
 something like what you've described, I think it should work all the
 same).

 Maybe it's a good idea to allow customization if this behaviour with some
 flags, like "--signal SIGTERM --timeout 3" or something like this, but
 even a simple kill/reload seems like a *really* good start.

 Btw, maybe a ghci command like ":load_and_reload_on_changes" can be useful
 as well.
