Hi! From a quick glance, this looks like a good change.

'automatically reconnect a dead screen window' -> 'automatically launch the process that was running in the dead window', or 'automatically resurrect the dead screen window'. The 'zombie' command applies for all windows. But it looks like 'zombie_timeout' applies to the currently selected window, and all newly created windows? Can you please explicitly state that in the man/info pages. Thanks!
