We should use TorCtl to manage our Tor process if we do not use a system wide Tor that is pre-configured:
http://packages.debian.org/sid/python-torctl

If we do use a system wide Tor, we should still use TorCtl to control and configure it.

I think that TorCtl doesn't have a way to launch a Tor; it is easily added if that is still true.
