Is there currently any way to daemonize a process in Linux? I was using the

There's going to be excitement with this, mostly because typically
daemonising involves forking twice to ensure that you're reparented to init,
which will result in a Really Bad Time if you're using libnative.

Therefore, it's possible but only if you've not done too much stuff, which
would be unsafe.

Seperately though, rust *does* need a coherent story here. I'm just not at
all sure what it will look like.
