	be a release blocker?

So in a slightly different direction...

All the release criteria on the referenced page are about booting and 
running, which makes sense as far as it goes, but what about shutting 
down?  Although they're mostly fixed now, there was a series of bugs 
dealing with F11 being unable under certain conditions to shut down 
without the use of the power button.

It's a generic enough condition, I think it should probably apply to any 
release of any OS, maybe here with wording something like "installed 
system MUST be able to shut down or reboot from any runlevel" and 
perhaps with an additional "installed system SHOULD be able to change 
between any two runlevels."

For most wikis, I'd have put the question on the Talk page, but 
ReleaseCriteria doesn't have a Talk page.

Anyway, thoughts?
