I've been trying to avoid adding unicorn-specific APIs unless absolutely
necessary.

You're forking off from the master?  Worst case is you'll get a log
message about an unknown process, right?

I'm also wondering why... sidekiq/resque are standalone daemons
themselves.  Shouldn't that be done as part of the deploy/init process?
(unicorn isn't going to become init/upstart/systemd)
