Anyone else feel the need for such a beast besides me ?
After all, if you're feeding a number of sites,
batchrunning can be just as loading as newsrunning, and sometimes
one does feel the need to stop it :-)

Or should I just add "echo $$ > $NEWSCTL/sendbatches.pid" to sendbatches
and kill `cat $NEWSCTL/sendbatches.pid` ?
