Originally I had assumed (wrongly) at some level that AS 7 would be completely service-oriented as 5 and 6 were. The reality is that AS 7 is oriented around management, not services. I still think that a service-oriented VM is a valid use case for MSC, however I think that this is not the case in AS 7. So I think I should introduce an option to disable the shutdown hook in MSC, and instead we should create one for AS 7 which executes a shutdown management operation.
