Unfortunately Server is the only version that I don't have running anymore. But as Arjen noted most versions can handle the guest shutdown natively. One catch is that this extends the shutdown and startup times quite a bit and so the battery level at which you start the shutdown would need to be higher. Another catch I believe is that the guest must be running the VMWare tools. If VMWare Server can't do it (check under the advanced tab) then you may want to consider VMWare 3i as it can and is also free. Hit the VMWare forums as they should be able to fill in all the details.
