Terminal app should support lifecycle exception

[ghost]

Terminal app should support prevention of app_suspensions or similar.

It would be helpful if there was a setting for the terminal app which allows the user to start a process in the shell and have it continue running even if the user locks the phone. There are lots of cases when one wants to start a process and just let it run until you select to terminate it yourself.

I suggest making a new setting for this. It should be clear to the user that this has an impact on battery life.

Have you tried using the "TweakGeek" app to set that the terminal app is not suspended? I use the terminall app to connect to servers with ssh, and the connection is not dropped even if the phone locks.
