[9fans] drawterm factotum interference in 9front

When I use drawterm to access 9front from FreeBSD with a running factotum, no additional user identification is needed.
This is fine, as long as I do not try to use another identity. Factotum seems to overrid any -u user option in the drawterm command.  It logs me in always as myself, even if I add the other identity to factotum.

BTW. I would like to see a way to build a drawterm without gui, as installing X11 libs for nothing else than compiling a drawterm on a remote server is annoying. My main application of  drawterm -g is exporting factotum from a 9front system, as plan9port factotum does not support dp9ik.

This is in part why I wrote tlsclient: https://github.com/majiru/tlsclient

It's actually pretty straightforward to build drawterm without X11.

I've experimented it here:
