We do a fair bit of subprocess launching/tracking in Builder with
private DBus for IPC, and I would love to be able to re-use the
spawning/tracking code.

I filed a bug[1] a while back wrt reliably killing processes. But I'd
really like to see this go just a bit further in terms of something like
a "GContainer" API. Going that route might simplify the process for
supporting non-Linux too.
