This is considering the process that happens when LinuxCNC is exited
with a machine powered-up and running? I can see this is a type of
e-stop, but not the normal sort.

Is it possible to refuse to quit until at least one servo cycle has
run with the LinuxCNC enable outputs disabled? (is that what happens
at the moment?)
