If your service is going to break whenever it gets killed, it's
also going to
break whenever the power is lost, whenever the kernel panics and whenever I
accidentaly push the button. I don't believe Fedora ships such broken
software :)
I use Linux to avoid random OS crashes, I have redundant power to avoid
random power failures, and I don't let others near the boxes to avoid
random button pushes.
I expect my system to shut down cleanly. Databases, filesystems, etc.
are much happier when the rug isn't pulled out from under them.
