There's a comment in the code saying that there's no way to get the ID,
but... "The calling thread can use the WaitForInputIdle function to wait
until the new process has finished its initialization and is waiting for
user input with no input pending. This can be useful for synchronization
between parent and child processes, because CreateProcess returns
without waiting for the new process to finish its initialization. For
example, the creating process would use WaitForInputIdle before trying
to find a window associated with the new process."
