For what it's worth, I like that concept. Do you have a way in mind for the non-PID1 process that's receiving these pids to match them up with services that need restarting? I don't see a good way to do this in general but it seems safe to use pid files (produced by the daemons themselves) here as long as the only purpose you use them for is detecting exit.
