Not automatically continuing slaves seems a good change.  But I
do not like the ui.sessions.keep_master_running option, it's just
trading one bug (Debian bug 337159) for another (slaves getting
stuck when the master is suspended, even though ELinks should
make all terminals equal from the user's viewpoint).

Could the master being suspended perhaps fork and become a slave,
passing the master responsibilities to the child process?  If an
operating system has SIGTSTP, it should have fork() too, I think.
And bug 181 which would have blocked this appears FIXED in master.
