There's no real equivalent, but the "service" command is the main method of starting/stopping processes/daemons. In itself it doesn't do what the start-stop-daemon does, but the scripts associated with the service utility can be customized to mimic some similar functions.
My goal is:
start a service/daemon using init.d-script with user != root in a correct way.
One solution is using su/sudo - but is that "clean"?

Check /etc/init.d/functions for the declared "deamon()" function and you will spot a correct and clean way to run a service as a user. daemon() can make use of the "runuser" command.
