I think that every module that has a .conf associated should has a '*
reload' command to retrieve the configuration, there is a question on the
dCap exam about this (I think) to confuse you:

How do you reload sip and voicemail without reloading other module?
1 - sip reload and voicemail reload
2 - sip reload and reload app_voicemail.so

They ask you this because they think you will reply with 'sip reload and
voicemail reload' because you will think "every command has a reload why
voicemail shouldnt?" <-- This dCap question inspire me to add this
command.

And I think, we are trying to make asterisk as simple as possible, and not
every administrator will know or must know that voicemail functionality is
under app_voicemail.so. I also think that we don't loose anything adding
this type of commands. I see 'module reload *.so' as a low level command.

I know there is a workaround for reloading voicemail config, but it is
hard to remember every command if we don't encapsulate them in a common
form.
