[issue35727] sys.exit() in a multiprocessing.Process does not align with Python behavior

[Davin Potts]

Davin Potts <python at discontinuity.net> added the comment:

I believe the mentality behind multiprocessing.Process triggering an exit code of 1 when sys.exit() is invoked inside its process is to indicate a non-standard exit out of its execution.  There may yet be other side effects that could be triggered by having a sys.exit(0) translate into an exit code of 0 from the Process's process -- and we might not notice them with the current tests.

Was there a particular use case that motivates this suggested change?
