the tempest is raging out there. today there is a fine piece by Corbet
resuming the state of affairs on LWN, which I got as a subscriber (and
I do recommend subscribing to LWN, is the best source of news out
there)

fortunately they have a link to offer to non-subscribers, I'm not sure
it will expire, however see here

I sometimes have to logout and login again to be able to kill wild threads of Icedove which survive in a blocked state after the windows have been closed. The idea to be able to kill all processes started in a session is not a bad idea. Corbet explains this very well and also says the idea has been around for many years.

The decision to impose this on everybody has been taken by the Systemd team, and their fans now protest. I think they complain because systemd was hidden and it is becoming more and more visible and allmighty and it is obvious that whatever they do, they do it by its permission.

Otherwise, I like the idea to have a better control of what survives a session.
