It seems that there's no other way than to launch emacs -nw in a
screen(1) and forget about it. Since Emacs has become a true server, it
may be a good idea to had a `-daemon' option or something like that.
Any opinion?

It would be great to be able to do this. Karoly said on this list that
the way to implement this is to implement a special kind of display
that does not output anything.
We just need someone that is interested to work on this...

Basically, it'd be like -batch except without the `noninteractive' and
such stuff.
