Having daemons deactivate themselves like this seems like a bad idea 
from a users perspective... God knows in how many places you'd be 
searching for the reason why feature xyz isn't working, if all services 
would do that. The will have a pretty hard time re-enabling themselves 
as it stands right now.

Btw, from my experience, the cpuspeed daemon isn't even started from the 
initscript (at least on my machine, running FC6), it really only 
modprobes the cpufreq_ondemand module.
