Yes, this is indeed a very reasonable strategy for running jails.
However, all of this has kind of strayed from the original discussion;
that was why I said 'forget I said anything about supervise' :)

This whole discussion started after I mistakenly decided that
all jails are /bin/sh /etc/rc jails, and that the /etc/rc part
keeps running for as long as the jail is alive; this alone would
be the situation when supervising a jail would help 'rebooting'
the jail (shutting down all processes).  Since my basic premise
was wrong, supervise cannot be used to reboot a whole jail
(kill all the processes running within), I humbly apologize for
the wasted traffic :)

G'luck,
Peter
