Well, either that or change the SIGHUP handling to leave existing jobs 
alone. I actually tend towards liking that stuff I fire up into the 
background survives closing the terminal (as under BeOS). It would also 
avoid risking data loss (imagine you started an editor into the 
background). But I suppose it mainly depends on what you're used to...
