Comment (by anonymous):

 Isaac,

 Arguably "starting mythwelcome" has a different meaning than "stopping
 mythfrontend", right? Now look how the backend handles both occurences.
 Currently both FE an MW disconnections are handled the same, they trigger
 the countdown. To the BE they are the same, which is odd.

 gnassas wants to create a type of (dis)connection that does not influence
 the power management state of the BE at all.

 The block_shutdown / allow_shutdown commands tell that the existence of a
 particular connection should not stop the BE from doing a shutdown. It
 doesn't say anything about the the transition from "wait for FE" to the
 countdown state. So these commands can't be used to fix the problem.
