> Do we agree on the use cases that need to be supported? I think they

> 1. master session held open till slaves exit (original behaviour)

ControlPersist=no/false (default)

> 3. master backgrounded on first session exit, closes after timeout.

ControlPersist=timespec (use convtime() to parse it)

> 2. master backgrounded on first session exit, closes with last slave.

ControlPersist=0 (special case of (3) )

> 4. master backgrounded on first session exit, never closes.

ControlPersist=yes/true/till-the-cows-come-home
