So it looks like this visibly diverges from how thing look on Windows. I think the only way is to have it hidden in some way and not appear in any app-visible queries. That would probably need some attribute for this first thread on the server and explicitly excluding it from any user visible queries. That would mean of course that such a thread will have some limitations in what it can do, likely it won't be able to send window messages. Then, probably the condition when the process is considered terminated should exclude this service thread too? Why would it be different from any Wine internal threads? They aren't causing problems in general.
