So do I.  The mysql client process is one I need occasionally and I don't
want to dedicate another tab to it, but it's a pain in the ass to log in
every time I do need it.  So I keep it in the background of my "general
purposes" tab, and fg it whenever I need it.  The trick is to remember to
type ^Z instead of ^D when I'm finished.
