This is a good description of the problem and a bug in my opinion. I could reproduce it (Debian 3.0 with KDE 3.1.2), but only when starting konqueror from a non-KDE session. I guess that this happens to you not because of launching the application as a child process, but because of the architecture of KDE. When you start a KDE program from a non-KDE session, some helper processes are started in the background, including the kio service for opening files with the right application. These processes are terminated automatically a short time after the last KDE application is closed. Please file a bug report for this at http://bugs.kde.org.
