Generally speaking, linux relies on its users to not do things unless
they know what they are doing. If you don't believe me try logging in
as root and typing "rm -rf /usr".(in case you don't know, that will
foobar your system and likely force you to re-install from the
beginning)

I think part of the problem here might be conceptual.
If I understand what you want, you'd like, on a signal, for your program to
go into the background (still running but no longer blocking the terminal
input/output). On another signal you would like the program to come back to
the foreground.

They are assigned linearly, however once a pid is used, it is never reused
until the machine reboots.
A pid of 413 means that when that process was fork()'ed there had been 412
other processes already created. But remember every time you type ls, you've
run a process.
413 isn't a large pid at all
