What exactly do you refer to?  I think the other suggestions
seem to be based on knowing the PID, so given that this doesn't change
due to execve(), a workaround seems to be possible already, e.g.
a custom output logfile name "nohup.PID.out":

  exec nohup some/prg > nohup.$$.out

Regarding an option writing the PID: well, what about all the other
utilities executing other processes like env, nice, time, ionice,
xargs, ...?
It sounds like to become quite some bloat to the code of all the utilities
of this class - especially as the PID does not change due to execve().

Have a nice day,
