My initials feelings are good.

Obviously it will also have to be implemented for killall() so we can
killall children with a single @term_seq.

I have a small worry that kill() is serial: You cannot have multiple
kills running in parallel, so if you wait 60+60 seconds to kill a
single job, then you can at most kill 30 jobs per hour.
