I tried two now. 
The first one turned out to be a script around xterm. :-(
The second fails the test:
 xwininfo.exe -display :0 -children &
>>> tty0     00:00:00 xwininfo -children  -children

The third fails as well:
 xcalc -bg blue -fg green &
>>> tty0     00:00:00 xcalc  blue -fg green

If it can it does. Now (!sorry) I remember seeing that in nineties.
