Your implementation would have worked just fine other than the 
manage_dhcp mode in settings
being pulled out.  

I should have my patch shortly and I'll post it to the list -- 
ordinarily I'd just let you do it, but this is a bit
confusing and I need to straighten it up.

ISC and DNS both go through modules.conf now.
They are enabled in 'settings', but how they are implemented is switched 
by the module loader.

I'm adding 'restart_dhcp' and 'restart_dns' presently and removing 
anything ending in "_mode".
I'm also fixing up the trigger.
