??? I see no problems doing a wait() in a program to catch a childs
termination. There even is an example in wait()'s manpage.

Messages like:

$ xpdf ~/a.pdf &
[1] 11127
$ 
[1]+  Done                    xpdf ~/a.pdf
$ 


do point to some ability in bash to detect when children finishes.
That could be done by catching SIGCHLD. Using sigaction() when setting
up a signal handler gives you the possibility to extract the sending
process pid so you can wait() it without blocking.

And bash do have a list of its direct childrens:

$ for i in 1 2 3; do xpdf ~/a.pdf & done
[1] 11294
[2] 11295
[3] 11296
$ jobs
[1]   Running                 xpdf ~/a.pdf &
[2]-  Running                 xpdf ~/a.pdf &
[3]+  Running                 xpdf ~/a.pdf &
$
