Well, you can do {run-one-constantly, run-one-until-{success,failure}} with systemd units today, as it the unit files provide for restart semantics - and systemd can be run as user.
I would not be surprised if the rest is replicatable with units too, after all, systemd has some cron-ish functionality already I hear.
Combine that with systemd-run to create units on the fly... you see where this is going ;)
True for "root" or other "privileged" users with expirience.
systemd does have a user mode.. I would not be surprised if "soon" there is one instance running for each logged-in user. Did I not hear GNOME was eyeing it as a desktop process manager?
This is a mid-term goal, but systemd folks will only start investing on
that once they have finished their work on kdbus (which will be a
requirement).
