Option to restart a container before pausing.

I'm proposing an option to restart a container, then wait a certain length of time before pausing. One use case for wanting this is a Palworld server, which is notorious for having a bad memory leak and needing to be constantly restarted. Having the container restart after no network activity is detected, waiting x amount of time for it to boot up, and then pausing would keep it ready to go and make sure memory usages doesn't get out of control.

That's an interesting idea. I would be willing to implement another environment variable, something along the lines of TIMID_RESTART_BEFORE_PAUSE_DELAY,
to specify the amount of boot time given to the container when restarting before pausing. The use case does seem pretty niche though so I would be interested in exploring some more general way of implementing this. I am currently working on an HTTP API that would expose actions like restarting and pausing containers. Perhaps a more general solution would be to expose some kind of easy to define behaviors using the API. Any thoughts?
