So why would we need this setting? Final kill should go to all remaining
processes; what is scenario where it would *not*?

So may be we simply need to make final kill independent of KillMode.

I'm fine with having separate setting for SIGTERM and SIGKILL, just do
not see use case for the latter.

Having KillMode=process and ensuring that final kill really attempts to
kill everything would be enough to fix this problem. Except in this
case KillMode probably has to be renamed to something else, like
SendTermSignalTo= ...
