Actually if D28016 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D28016> is approved, I can 
remove the windowId altogether.

This is an excellent point. This keeps bothering me too.

One issue is that in order to use this from KRun I needed the PID immediately.
But maybe we can add a blocking method (with QProcess::waitForStarted, no event 
loop there) specifically for KRun, until KF6.

Re job completion, I agree that apps only care about starting the process.
The idea of watching for exit code to detect non-existing executable was only a 
small optimization in 2000 (commit 15bd0141a63f244bdd6f9 
<https://phabricator.kde.org/R446:15bd0141a63f244bdd6f9c134131303039985a65>), 
let's move this around and check before hand, it'll be much simpler.
