Re: Which signal >(process) receives after main shell exits?

There's a resolution – Zsh apparently doesn't manage >(process). No signal
is being sent. The function exits after main shell exits, because `read`
starts to ignore -t 1 timeout, after it somehow detects that stdin is
invalid. Thus quick 1000 iterations of the loop execute, and `fun` exits,
triggering EXIT trap.

I wonder if this is a discovery of other way of running disowned processes.
