This is confusing at best

Yes, at the very least the documentation should be improved.  I installed
the attached patch to try to do that.

Thinking about this some more, I conclude that history, and the ability to expose a few misuses are perhaps not sufficient argument for maintaining the status quo. So if you (Paul) want to flip nohup
to universal acceptor, I would not object.
With nohup's documentation improved,
and no further comments/changes in 3 years, I'm closing this as "fixed".
