Could you potentially use mozAlarms to wake your app up in case it gets closed? 
This is what we do for calendar to synchronize events with the server.

Subject: [b2g] Prevent app from being killed

Hi there,

I'm quite new to Firefox OS. At the moment I'm struggling with implementing 
some kind of a "service" that listens for geolocation updates in the background.
If there are lots of other apps running at the same time mine seems to be 
killed by the system. When I debug with App Manager it just disconnects from 
the app silently.

I tried requestWakeLock('cpu') and the use of a Worker but without success.

I know that there are non certified apps like ConnectA2 that stay alive all the 
time so there have to be a way.
 
Could someone give me a hint?
