I think all "non-native machine executables" (scripts, interpreted code, etc.) should have the full name of their interpreter in them. If they also had a unique (i.e. common) pattern for identification, it would be rather nice. Personally I don't like the presence of too many daemons, but if you can keep the kernel simple, why not?
