This looks nice, but I wish it would just use Launchd under the hood.

Launchd is solid and full-featured:

* Good process management (failure retries with backoff)

* Supports watching folders

* Decent command-line client for when you want to script or work fast in the shell

* Supports starting daemons on login

* Can start/stop based on whether certain things (network, paths, mounts, etc.) are up/down

* Supports calendar-based scheduling (replaces cron)

* Can redirect logging

* Can enforce resource limits (RAM, CPU, I/O, number of processes etc.) + nice level

I run all my daemons (Homebrew apps as well as personal development stuff) under Launchd, and I would love a convenient menu-bar GUI like this.
