As I said I used to use gnu screen. However I didn't like the limited layout options so I started using dvtm and would nest it inside screen so that I could detach from a session. However I felt it was kind of silly to be using such a heavy/complex program such as screen for one feature so I switched to dtach. And actually as long as you set file permissions correctly (dtach uses a file as a socket) you can share terminals with others using dtach.
