Doh. Yes, of course you're right. In Linux you could easily configure
the OS to shutdown SC7 when suspending or hibernating; I'm not so sure
about Windows or MacOS or others. It'd be better for the plugin to
implement a CLI command that could be called by something watching for
ACPI events, so the OS wouldn't have to unload all the Perl/MySQL
processes.
