I don't believe the module would be reloaded by any running process.
Even restarting sugar does not (tested in joyride 1477). I think you would need a reboot.

The reason I am not recommending sugar-control-panel, though I agree that it is an
elegant solution, is that it does not seem to work (yet).

Has anyone successfully used it?
