Anyway, we've tests in many places that the option is ignored if running in the background. We should unify this.

PR for one case: #2520

Should I update my PR to fix the logic so that if in background, don't wait (and also the CLI docs) ?

@mikem what was the original idea? I expect, that wait should work even if running in background for scripting usage?

I generally think that commands should do what the user says. If the user passes --wait, then the command should wait.

I think there is a valid use case for this. Some users will run koji build --wait ... && follow up command where the follow up command does something with the build. Such a command pipeline might well be backgrounded or scripted.

Also, if it is not already the case, the exit code after waiting should indicate success or failure of the build or task.
