Oh yeah, we should never suspend helpers, that's for sure.

I'm not even totally sure we should be suspending the UIs, after all
those are *trusted* prompts, meaning they should be able to trust they
won't go haywire with the CPU.

Bug description:
  After we fix bug #1355173, we'll be "leaking" trusted prompts in the
  sense that when an app gets unfocused (and potentially killed
  subsequently), the trusted prompts will be left running, not suspended
  with the app. We should apply the same rules to the whole app
  container (can we use ual? add the prompts to the pgroup/cgroup?).

  This needs an escape route, too, for trusted helpers to be able to
  kill prompts as they need to.
