This is quite important for me. I have a module that implements a
daemon/service[1] (due to QtService being old and not integrating with
windows' service manager) and I use the static `QProcess::startDetached` to
start the daemon and detach from the controlling terminal (on Linux). I
need *AN* API to do this, otherwise I'd have to (re)implement
double-forking myself. If there are changes I'm going to comply with them,
but please, deprecate only if you allow for detaching (later) through the
non-static methods.
