Child processes are not automatically terminated if their parent
dies.  In general you have to handle this yourself (for example,
https://mywiki.wooledge.org/SignalTrap#When_is_the_signal_handled.3F).
I don't know if zsh has some special sauce to streamline this, as
I rarely write scripts that spawn long-running processes.
