Unless you're using systemd230, then everything dies, even stuff that
shouldn't :/

As for "kill all the user-started things", isn't that already do-able
at logout -- such as hooking a script into your logout process (similar
to hooking all kinds of things to .bashrc for login)?

bash syntax is 'nohup <command> &' (well, I believe the ampersand is
optional, but tossing that long running process to background is
generally more useful -- at least to me).
