No, and I doubt there ever will be. I don't understand at all the whole thing about reading the system logs -- when your app is dead, it is dead, so it isn't there to read the system log. When it starts later in the future, whatever information was printed in the log may have rolled out at that point... and anyway it is not restarting so it -knows- it was killed. What is the point?
