I often run the components individually for quickly testing them 
(without running bind10 parent process). I normally just press Ctrl-C to 
stop. I don't need to do this as I can fall back to "kill" instead. (Or 
use bindctl with shutdown in some cases.)

I may not understand, but I thought if running with bind10 parent, the 
SIGINT would never be seen my the child anyways. (I don't understand why 
to ignore for each component.)
