That happens already, but when the app is suspended, it doesn't get the
memo that mir died. And if unity8 dies, it will just respawn, so there's
no desktop-end or application-end emitted.

Bug description:
  For some reason Unity8 crashed on me. The applications I had open are
  now orphaned. They're still running but you can't get to it as it no
  longer shows up under the recent applications. In addition if I
  attempt to start the app, it fails to run or come back from orphaned
  state, so I have to restart.

  My unity process where Unity8 died an hour or two back.

  The application:-
