[Dovecot] Wait for interface to become available instead of dying?

At the moment, if one of the interfaces specified with "listen=" in
dovecot.conf is not up when Dovecot is started, then Dovecot just
refuses to start. Is there an option to make Dovecot start anyway, and
just use the interface when it becomes available? It is inconvenient to
have Dovecot refuse to start during boot because some interface is
temporarily not available.
Then again, maybe there is some strong security reasoning behind the way
Dovecot behaves at the moment?
