Well, recovery after resetlogs is a complex issue. For one DBID changes after resetlogs and you end up with a different database. It would require playing around with set dbid=.....
Common wisdom says that there is no recovery after resetlogs, and that is, of course, false, but recovery after resetlogs is something I've been taking all precautions against and I've never done it. One doesn't want to perform "alter database open resetlogs" automatically unless he or she is 300% certain that the operation will succeed. Of course, the first thing to do after resetlogs is - backup.
