problem is, "shutdown" is the "kill -9" of interfaces - it drops carrier abruptly and leaves everything else sort itself out. If you want a graceful shutdown then you need a separate command with hooks to all of the protocols running on the interface - and there are usually a lot of those. I suspect this would would be troublesome to implement.
I have no problem if they called it "shutdown gracefully" or something else, I just want the functionality so I don't have to go into each and every routing protocol and deconfigure the interface in question, and then restore it at a later date when I want to go back to normalcy.
