Does tmux support the multiple-overlapping-windows features of
window(1)?  I don't miss having screen-style attach/detach in base (I
seem to be an outlier in not using screen), but I would really miss the
"poor man's window system" for windowing on text consoles, to the point
where I'd simply bring window back in privately if it were removed from
base.
