This would be nice, with my car however, I would need kill switch to get this behavior as shutting engine with keys turns it off, turn key to on position and glow plugs do their cycle, starting itself does not make glow plugs run, turning power to on setting will do that.

With diesel, kill switch should be rather simple to install however, there is shutdown solenoid somewhere and kill power to that and engine shuts off.
