Is there a mechanism which can be used for this? Of course this could be done using the usual autostart feature, or we turn the server into a Windows service (ask @alexk). Start the client along with kleopatra?

Last time I used the Non-Sucking Service Manager to create a windows service.
This works fine when the program gracefully stops on a OS terminate signal.
But this is an additional dependency.

in the meantime we decided it's not always desirable to have the process autostarted. therefore the current default (manual start) is considered ok, but if possible a configuration option should be implemented, so users can activate autostart if they find it useful.
