I'm curious: does OpenRC allow processes to leave the cgroup? For
example, when killing the ssh service, I do not want to kill active
connections. With systemd, pam_systemd takes care of this. How does it
work on OpenRC?

I thought the current sysvinit implementation with insserv in Debian
already does this. But I might be wrong.

Doesn't it still use the (unmaintained?) sysvinit? But then, that's only
a part that probably doesn't need much maintainance anyway.
