Description
Using 2.0.3, micro keeps running in the background even after quiting it using ctrl+q. I have a feeling this happens when I run them as root (using doas). After a while my CPU is running at 100%. because of how many micro instances are active.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with micro 2.0.3, Ctrl+Q, and a process launched through doas, then inspect whether the editor remains active after quitting. Done means quitting leaves no active micro instances and does not cause sustained CPU usage.
