A thread in Linux *is* a process. They are fundamentally one and the same.

Having  said that, alt-tab is managed by the window manager. And it would

Mythfrontend doesn't need X, it isn't killed when X is killed. Maybe it
should monitor the X server if it was started with one. And automatically
quit if X is killed.
