I'm a bit skeptical of this proposal. Forcing the postmaster to
dissociate from its controlling terminal is a good thing in some
scenarios, but probably less good in others, and manual postmaster
starts are probably mostly in the latter class.
I wonder whether having "pg_ctl start" do a setsid() would accomplish
the same result with less chance of breaking debugging usages.
