It's the same with btrfs balance and scrub. It may be the operation
completes by kernel code, but with user space detached from the kill,
the status/statistics are lost.
I don't know about btrfs, but with LVM, nothing is lost. You can run
"pvmove" at any time to continue to show the status.
And we're talking about KillUserProcesses; logging out _already_ killed
the pvmove command. Nothing has changed.
