valid has no value here. Meino is trying to get his embedded (hack job)
to shutdown. He first needs to get this accomplished before
finding/developing a robust solution for his unique embedded needs.
This is how most embedded workflows propagte, often with a singular dev.
Meino is very lucky, he has the gentoo community to toss him ideas
on a regular basis.
So no, not part of regular system administraion. YES for a transient
solution to an embedded hack.
hth,
James
