It could use the grandchildren's SIGCHLDs for various task management
issues: i.e. watching double-forking daemons, catch SIGSEGVS so that you
can crosslink that service state to systems like abrt. Or even just that
you can implement a safe restarting logic: i.e. so that we can easily
wait that a process and its children are fully dead before we restart
the service.
