You are right. I was not sure myself, so I did test this, but only with a 
'sleep 60' command. It was still running when I closed the shell, so I 
thought this would work. But now I learnt this is not true for emerge. Does 
anyone know why?

I agree with Stroller, tmux seems like the way to go. I do not use it (yet), 
because I already know screen, but it is on my to do list, after some 
postings here.
