Actually, there is.  It's not exactly Epiphany's responsibility, but
don't forget that nspluginwrapper gives Epiphany some of the advantages
of Google Chrome's process model today.  Just wrap the plugin in
nspluginwrapper and it will run in its own process.  When it dies... you
don't see the flash app, but the browser is otherwise unaffected.  It is
my understanding that Fedora wraps all plugins, 32 bit and 64 bit, on
both 32 bit and 64 bit platforms to gain this advantage, and to allow
them to treat plugins separately in their SELinux policy.

That said, I've had better results with Gnash plugin than with Swfdec
plugin lately and prefer not to use the adobe plugin if I can avoid it.
