 I also tend to think this feature goes outside the scope of "basic"
supervision tools as runit and daemontools. Sure, it could be integrated
in such tools, and not even make them too bloated; nevertheless, I like
the simple guarantees that they offer, and would prefer not to alter
their semantics too much.

 The feature can rather easily be implemented on a higher layer. You
could write a program that checks the restarting rate (provided runit
notifies some place when it restarts the service - I really need to
finish that notify library of mine :/ - is a program currently able
to listen to such an event without polling anything ?) and touches the
"down" file when the restart rate is too high.
