I believe you have hit the nail on the head.  Sometimes I see a few open
applications go away and then the shutdown process just stops.  As an
experiment I will try to close down all applications and try this.  I

that will work.

I still think this is buggy though.  Why can't the behavior be the same
as the
command like?
