updating services' environment

I'm writing a framework in which I need to be able to easily restart
services with new environment values. Currently I'm achieving this by
ensuring that (s6-)supervise is always down when the service is down. Then,
naturally, when the service comes up, it will have the environment given by
the user.

Is there a more sane way to implement this?

It seems counter to the core design to have supervise stop so often.
