I couldn't find a built-in way to cleanly terminate them, so I had to install a signal handler to issue an Application.Terminate. Is there a provided way that I missed?

BTW, also, they don't daemonize under Linux/run as service under windows. Maybe they aren't supposed to?

No. Calling Terminate is what needs to be called.
How/when this needs to be called is up to you.

Installing a signal handler is one way (a good one). I sometimes install a password protected URL handler that calls terminate.

They are not supposed to.
That kind of thing is a design decision only you can make.

This is the reason why web components have the TWebHandler and TApplication classes split: the webhandler does the work, the TApplication part determines what kind of application it is. I have executables that can run as a service or as a normal binary.
