Hi there, i am running two services over udp only - publicly at least. I would be happy to be able to add them to vigil. :)

Hello there! Unfortunately UDP probes cannot be easily designed at that layer, as UDP is a connection-less protocol. Best IMHO would be to implement more application-layer probes for protocols using UDP, eg. DNS, as we can check at the DNS protocol level if we got an answer.
