Given that the PID would be killed pretty much as soon as it started and that you're most likely to trigger this while writing an unstart job for a daemon, I'd agree that the potential for serious problems is low.
However, I don't think this is a user error/mistake, some daemons are just more awkward than others, may require scripts, etc., I don't think it's reasonable to expect every daemon out there to be re-written to play well.
