Public bug reported:

Currently in the releases applications can easily escape for the
lifecycle by creating a new process group. To avoid this we need to use
cgroups in the application jobs. Currently that is blocked on:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-app-launch/+bug/1357252

After that lands then we can land a branch to fix this bug. Bug is
mostly for tracking to ensure we don't miss this going into RTM.
