WHERE DOES IT SAY THIS?  NOTHING THE ZEPHYR GROUP RELEASED SAYS THIS.
You should *NOT* put zwgc into the background, or else it won't go away
on logout.

Additionally, he asks about the ttymode option.  Jerry required that the
default be NO TTYMODE.  The Zephyr team decided to implement this as a
user-settable option, defaulting to doing what it does now  (If you set
'fallback' to true, using zctl, this will happen automatically.).
