Actually, *systemd* is that process. That's one of its huge features
missing in the old init system. Take a look at the man page for
systemd.service — search for "Restart=".

However, we don't configure most things that way out of the box... yet.
There was discussion about this three years ago, reopened a year ago...

https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/191

and the current guidelines 

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Systemd?rd=Packaging:Guidelines:Systemd#Automatic_restarting

but as far as I know there hasn't been a big effort to bring existing
services in line. (Seems like a worthwhile project if anyone's
interested.)
