On a "real" mainframe, that is how it works.  When you type 'x'<enter>, you
are logging out of the user interface.  That takes you out to the TSO "command
line" where you type in "logoff"<enter> and the connection drops.

Getting into SDSF and seeing user sessions "running" was pretty neat for an
old mainframe user.  Probably wouldn't mean anything to someone who'd never
seen such a thing.  ;)
