I know this has been solved other ways, but I'm thinking the generic 
syntax is useful too (in the case where a program doesn't have a 
background mode):

ssh -T somewhere <<! &
touch file
sleep 333 && rm file
!
echo I want control to arrive at this line without waiting 333!

The -T makes ssh not complain about stdin not being a terminal.
