- actual handler: okular, evince, etc.
- underlying handler is what xdg-open actually calls: kde-open5, "gio
open", etc. and that maps file type to particular .desktop (or mailcap)
handler.

Sorry, for me it easier to reason how to express it in terms of system
calls and terminal process groups than if let-bind could override a
variable when lexical-bind is set to true.

I have been tempting to say that it is a race (either request is
completed before SIGHUP or not) since Christopher Miles posted a link to
stackexchange and I have realized the actual effect of an
antidaemonizing cast I noticed earlier in a package related to org mode.
On the other hand, I am not familiar with kde and gnome internals. I
guess they could use a kind of server processes but I have no idea how
to arrange parts for a convincing demonstration.
