Hi,

other rc scripts for services use daemon(8) with "-r" to recover from daemon
crashes automatically without requiring admin intervention.

Today our unbound resolver (v1.10) crashed but since unbound does not make use
of daemon it stayed down until we started it manually - which is worse than it
could be.

Please add daemon to unbound's rc script to recover from crashes automatically.

for an example on how to use daemon:
