I'm not totally convinced that "mixing in a new language" is a *bonus*
(as it means that the core team won't be able to help unless also fluent
with the other language).

Given that services run with maximum privileges, strong review is as

If the only reason why everyone is disliking the old openvpnserv is
"it is not restarting openvpn.exe when it breaks" - *that* should be=20
fairly easy to add.  So, what is that people consider "broken"?
