Comment:

 All the changes seem OK. However, we both probably forgot about the
 changelog entry.

 I do not really agree here. While what you wrote to #304 is a nice
 feature, it does not change anything about the fact that all bind
 components are expected to be fully reconfigurable at runtime. So the
 ability to start or stop recursive or auth server without restarting Boss
 should exist. The thing I wrote was just an example of situation when user
 might notice.
