> We should use the setsid command when the task is launched to create a new 
> session. We should be able to use the setsid program when we launch the bash 
> process to create a new session. That will allow us to kill the entire 
> session with a single signal and remove the need for the ping methods in both 
> TaskTracker.Child and pipes.
