I did see --listen but didn't look to far into it. As my first attempt
(routing STDIN, STDOUT, STDERR through VTE) worked I stopped working on

I agree, this appears overkill. I just wondered if it would be seen as
buggy: "I attempted to quit the terminal and the whole program
closed!". It is not a major concern.
