reload of unprivileded, maybe chrooted processes is hard or even impossible.

There is an other model (for example used in postfix):
A master process starts worker with a limited livetime or number of  
requests they handle.
Every now and then the master process starts a new worker and
use current/fresh configuation read from disk.

This way no reload is required.

No idea if this is/could be implemented in nsd/unbound.
