Comment 9 for bug 1450588

As soon as something isn't urgent it falls off everyones lists :-/
I have found this old bug (again) in my notes, felt embarrassed and converted the suggestion of xnox into an MP that we can ack and push to early 19.10 then (hopefully not forgetting it again).

We probably will have to rebase then, but lets agree on an MP now by reviewing and testing functionality in Disco.

After some experiments I use systemd'd output redirection which will make it not rely on sh, nor internal redirection and nicely leaves stderr on the job/journal but the output we want in the file.

A PPA to try is at [1] and an MP to package that change is at [2].

The change actually isn't that bg even thou it is a feature. We might convert this to an FFe if review and tests are fine.
