IMHO, in this circumstance, you still shouldn't have the GUI start the long-lived process. You'll probably want some other mechanism to [re]start the process in the event something goes wrong whilst it's running. So set up the starting mechanism as a cron job or server watchdog process. Then the GUI can just write the appropriate parameters to a database or file or socket as you wish and the starting mechanism will do the rest. No threads or forks in the GUI.
