I don't know what others recommend, but I'd be violently opposed to
the automatic re-starting for the very reason you mention above.
Monitoring it via monit, nagios or which other tools you have at hand
sounds very sensible to me, and I'd go with that for sure.

Nagios here, with e-Mail and pager alerts. Monitoring the postmasters
presence and the ability to connect to 5432 ....
