Not exactly; it assumes upstart will stop all associated job processes
/which need to be stopped before unmounting the filesystem at shutdown/.
There are some jobs, such as plymouth, which are expected to continue
running until shutdown, and are expected to work correctly on a read-
only root filesystem. Now, the plymouth job happens to have a 'stop'
condition, but that's actually irrelevant to the nature of what sendsigs
is doing.
If there are upstart jobs on the system that are failing to shutdown and
therefore causing havoc, we should fix that... but not by making changes
to the sysvinit sendsigs script, IMHO. And I'm not aware of any real
jobs that currently fall into this category.
