Description

To not have to create a new package to handle reboots, that parameter should probably be a last step in the generatejson.py script as an option, then insert it at the very end of resulting json.

Research direction

Start with generatejson.py and inspect how the launch daemon currently receives the reboot parameter and how the resulting JSON is assembled. Confirm the expected JSON structure and the final placement of the option; done means reboot behavior can be configured in the generated JSON without creating a separate package.
