It won't go down due to failure, but I've been cycling/downing it a lot to make changes, add things, etc. It's also running in a VM on my HTPC, so it's possible that I will need to occasionally reboot the host or temporarily stop the VM for various other reasons (maintenance etc.).

Is this something that would be worth writing a Git issue on, or would it just waste everyone's time?

My final thoughts are:
- It would be nice to have a canonical/supported way to script an action when Synchronet shuts down.
- It would be nice to see some design consolidation of scripting triggers, as having to dig through module selections, fixed events, on-init-via-timed-menu events, event-triggered external programs, modopts.ini script hooks, etc. to find the best way to do something makes for a steep learning curve - especially when the answer is different depending on what you're trying to accomplish.

Thanks,
