I like the idea, though I don't know any program language. I do be bored
with gdm error messages and quite slow process on my system(sometimes
more than 2 minutes to shutdown).

Hello all,
Just throwing something out there for discussion. I am wondering
perhaps if there would be a better restart and or shutdown method that
would prove faster. I don't tend to reboot any of my systems very
often but i tdid occur to me that although it is good to have certain
daemons starting after being called in /etc/rc.conf, it is not really
necessary from what I can tell to wait for them to stop upon shutdown
or reboot. For example: mpd, network, netfs, gdm (always gives errors
saying it can't find the pid anyway), dbus, hal, cron, cups, etc etc.
I know this would not make a massive difference in restart or shutdown
times, but it may help to optimize things in terms of speed on older
machines or when services hang at restart or shutdown. The only thing
I can see as being really important to do at shutdown or reboot is the
unmounting of filesystems, other than that, what else is really
necessary.
I took a look at the script /etc/rc.shutdown and from what I can
tell with my rudimentory skills at interpreting code of any kind, it
seems to call *anything at all* that was started within /etc/rc.d/
Thoughts? If I am way off in left field on this, please educate on
the reason.
Thanks,
CtM
