Well, I didn't really write any upstart job, but I've looked at many stock KT jobs and also scanned documentation of Upstart. Concept of signals, executing programs and pre-/post-scripts fit in my mind very well. It shouldn't be so distressing , I don't believe you.

As counter-argument: I wrote substantial init.d script once, it wasn't a big pleasure either.
