Are you sure that this is the correct behavior? Some time before I have opened this ticket it worked like expected: If I have started an application in the background I could close the terminal without closing the application. The only explanation would be that another process become the new parent (maybe init). At least the BadWindow error doesn't appear anymore. But a workaround is to use nohup which will still keep the application open.
