... greater resilience to bugs or problems in crmd.
Failover is disruptive to the application.  If we can recover from a
"transient" crmd process failure by locally restarting, there is less
disruption.
Of course, like the processes it monitors, a repeated crmd failure should be
converted to a "hard" failure that results in failover.
