Michael,

I agree with this assessment, I would not add any such capabilities to the firmware, too many avenues for failure.

Any physical hardware watchdog needs to be able to be shut down by a hardware jumper, otherwise debugging code is not possible...
I've encountered this issue many times in the past.

Sounds to me like you need a separate embedded cpu monitoring your problem and have it push the reset button....Not most elegant, but clean and portable.

Ken
