1. Add clear documentation to `createProcess` indicating that it will close the `Handle` automatically. 2. Add a new function to be exported from `System.Process` with the semantics of `createProcess_`. I'm open to bikeshedding on the name, but perhaps sticking with `createProcess_` makes the most sense.

I think the cleanest solution would be to add a new field (e.g. leaveOpen) to the CreateProcess record.

Wouldn't it be more natural to add a new constructor to the StdStream type? Naming it could be tricky, though. ShareHandle, perhaps? Cheers, Bertram
