What's a superjob?



Could someone explain in a sentence what a 'superjob' is?

I can see (from 'struct job' and grepping around) that it's a job that
has subjobs.  I can see that STAT_SUPERJOB is set in execpline() when
something happens with list_pipe_job, but list_pipe_job is also
undocumented.

I'm guessing that it's the 'bodyguard shell' demonsrated in
Joey's 43506 and explained in 43514.  Is that correct?

Thanks

Daniel
