There were a lot of noises made about it, yes, because people had been "nohup"ing things for decades, and using stuff like screen and tmux to keep sessions going over poor connections. All of a sudden, without much warning, someone made the decision to kill all user processes on logout. It broke a lot of folks workflow.
