If' we're going to have this shouldn't it be a proper command? And maybe an internal shutdown command to go with it?
I don't like the idea at all, but if we were to have something it would definitely need to be a lot more constrained than send-any-signal-to-any-postgres-process ... even for a superuser, that's a mighty fat-gauge foot-gun.
What sort of constraints do you have in mind?
