By the way, I think it's reasonble in some situations to start the daemon automatically if an app that requires the daemon is started.
Let's start a discussion on that. :-)
But first, I like to explain something. The on/off state of the daemon only affects the networking behavior and if the process will stay running in background. An application can always send and receive bundles, even if the daemon is switched off. Since the network behavior effects the users battery and the background process reduces the memory consumption, I prefer to leave the authority to switch the daemon on/off to the user alone.
Now I am curious to know which situation you consider as reasonable to switch the state of the daemon in the applications.
