I have to disagree a bit. I use ATK, and even if I kill any vital apps like Handcent, Gmail, Mail, etc, they still work. The background processes that are not the applications themselves, continue to operate. For example, SMS is still going to be received, and when it is, the application processes fire the application to deal with any tasks associated with said event. Killing apps doesn't kill processes that are started at the system level.
Now, if you have unread messages and you kill the app, the alerts may stop.
Just my observation, ymmv
