[Unbound-users] Feature request: foreground mode

[Anand Buddhdev]

Hello unbound developers,

I like to run daemons using the supervise tool from the daemontools 
package. This needs the daemon to run in the foreground (ie. not detach 
from the controlling terminal). Could you please add this feature to 
unbound (with a -f command-line option to enable it, for example).

I can see that the code already has the facility to run unbound in the 
foreground, if the configuration parameter "do_daemonize" is set to 
zero, but there's no code to actually read this variable from the config 
file or from a command-line switch. If you could enable this for the 
next release of unbound (or provide a diff against 0.9) I'd be grateful.

Regards,
