No.  SIGTERM (rather: the defined termination signal) is send
explicitely from cygrunsrv to the service process to stop the service.
If this is handled like --neverexits, it would be impossible to stop a
service manually.  The neverexits case should only cover the cases of
exiting as a result of an unexpected signal (SIGSEGV, etc).

I disagree.  Automatic restart of services is not desired by default.
It's a per-service, administrators choice.
