Title:
  ^Z causes time to exit

Status in time package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  sometimes you're running a program that's been taking awhile, and you
  want to pause it, maybe to make sure that it's still actually doing
  something, or to examine its state

  but if you use your shell to send ^Z to the program, time interprets
  that as time to exit:

  example

  time sleep 2390438903
  ^Z
  [1]+  Stopped                 sleep 2390438903

  real	0m0.792s
  user	0m0.000s
  sys	0m0.000s

  
  what should probably happen
  time sleep 2390438903
  ^Z
  $ fg
  real	blahblah
  user	blahblah
  sys	blahblah
