IMNSHO, it would actually be better to perform a full reboot once you
go to that stage. Most init scripts have only been extensively tested
to bring things properly up from reset, and that way you know things
are pretty clean. Anyway, this may be appropriate for some
environments, but not other.
Also, IMO the kernel shouldn't try to kill a process with iopl
(i.e. the X-server).
