I'm not too well versed in init scripts, but another issue would be
allowing the guest operating system enough "grace time" to shut down.
I know on Windows and probably on Linux, if a particular shutdown
"task" doesn't complete in a short period (usually only a few seconds)
the process is killed. You would need to be able to guarantee at least
30-60 seconds to allow a proper shutdown of the guest.
