There has been a TODO list item for a long time to introduce Type=pid-file which would work like this. I am a bit concerned though that people would just blindly make use of it without actually verifying that their specific daemon really creates the PID file as last part of initialization. But maybe that concern can be dealt with with an explicit warning in the man page.
