Wouldn't you want to see the logs when something goes wrong in
shutdown? Or is there a lot of noise that gets generated if you don't
do this during a graceful shutdown? I guess if there's some real
reason you're doing all this stuff in shutdown then it's fine, but if
it was just a default shuttling of code from remove to shutdown
because remove was going away then it could be deleted.
