Should be OK as long as you don't set 'confirm shutdown'. I'm assuming that Cumulus will actually be sent an 'end session' message, and allowed to close tidily. I don't know if there is a time limit after which it would just get killed anyway.

20 seconds by default IIRC.

Ah - that should be OK in most cases, then.

Would this be the best method?
Seems to wait 30 seconds before it shuts down.
