How about renaming them ? Leave the existing scripts as .sh, use
a different suffix for scripts that grok start/stop ?

No changes required for things that don't need to be stopped, no
slowdown (since nothing is run for scripts that don't need a stop) and
the things that do want stops are the only thing that have to change ?

Not very clean, admittedly, but it might allow the two to operate
together until all the old scripts have migrationed, if that was the
aim.
