Anyone know the specific reason why std::process::Child doesn't wait() on drop()?
Digging through through though the source I see that early on it did wait, and when an RFC was created to replace old_io, it mentions forget() remaining the same (which was the old way of opting in to not waiting):
But when the PR that actually implemented it went in, Drop was removed without comment
I know that this is extensively documented and I could just write a wrapper type myself, but it feels strange that such a decision occurred without discussion. Does anyone know where this conversation might have happened, if it did?
