No, it does not ; when I run { cat; } in a terminal, its input stream stays
open until I close it. But when { cat; } is run by KRunner, I cannot close it
because I cannot access its input handle.
While running { cat; } from KRunner does not make sense indeed, there are
programs that present a graphical widget when their input stream is closed.
These programs get confused by KRunner. I do not think we gain anything by
allowing this behaviour.
