Sorry, didn't read ahead. That seems like it would work, but seems pretty complicated.
Also: Does the daemon need to do anything after the last file system is unmounted and before the system reboots? Remember that it will get little or no warning of the impending shutdown, and since the unmounts are at the very end of shutdown there's very little time.
