> Do you have any concrete example that illustrates the "problem".

Thanks, but I'm looking at providing a solution to a general class of 
problems.  My question is simply whether or not anyone has investigated 
adding this sort of feature to runsv before -- if not, I'll probably 
spend some of my time trying to add this behavior, since respawning 
software is a reasonably common problem (for example, this is why the 
SysV Init package under Linux will stop respawning a process for a few 
minutes in this situation).
