That check now takes a list of process groups, and answers \"unknown\" for any group in that list, in addition to the cases where it already did.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is likely meant to avoid wrongly treating a background process as finished.\n\n- Area: Background Tasks\n- Tier: Under the hood\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
