I do use sysutils/tmux when I connect from my laptop to my package
baking system where poudriere runs. It makes it easy to detach and go
away with the laptop to other locations while poudriere is doing its
job.

Re/ stopping/restarting poudriere, it would be enough for most of the
cases (at least for me) to have the option to tell poudriere: do not
start new jobs, wait until the current job has finished and end normal.
Because I normally run poudriere with 8 jobs in parallel and killing it
one will loose 8 package buildings at once.

In this case you could restart the other day with the already built
packages your list of to be build ports.
