This doesn't appear to be documented in systemd.service(5):

    PIDFile=
        Takes an absolute file name pointing to the PID file of this
        daemon. Use of this option is recommended for services where Type=
        is set to forking. systemd will read the PID of the main process of
        the daemon after start-up of the service. systemd will not write to
        the file configured here.

I think that would be a good thing to add.
