No, it wouldn''t. ::start and ::stop commands where removed since they
duplicate simple functionality found built in windows.
The same you achieve calling mongrel_rails service::start -N myservice
could be done with just 3 words at the command line:
net start myservice
Doing a simple comparison:
"mongrel_rails service::start -N myservice".length
=> 41
"net start myservice".length
=> 19
Guess which one wins? This is also valid for stop (4 letters).

Why? you only need to remove and then reinstall the service (::remove
and then ::install again).

Just use: net start myservice, net stop myservice (being
''myservice''
the actual service you provided with -N option at service::install).
