I have to disagree, I don't think I've ever run something where what I intend is "kill this mid-run if my connection drops".
>This is basically the same behavior as Windows
My recollection from when I used Windows Server (admittedly some time ago) is that the default behavior on connection loss or closing an RDP window is indeed the tmux-like behavior. The user has to click a separate "Log out" button, and even then, has to manually confirm that it's okay to kill anything left running.
