With all respects, all the issues you address, should not be addressed with a new process manager which glues and tapes things together as some hot fix.
The processes need to be debugged and fixed. I'm strongly of the opinion that daemons for example, need to start once and not crash at all. I don't want a process manager to decide to restart it, and if that was acceptable, a safe script will do fine. (and hehe don't get me started about process states within systemd, its that process manager that often think processes are still running, while the old init would check for the process, detect its not running, cleanup the pid and start)
I also strongly believe in separation of duties, so 'big systems with many processes' do not exist in my opinion. They all have a specialised function, and only that function.
Also please have a look at the pdf i replied below to snow wrestler about systemd and its future.
Kind Regards
