My bad - I was thinking about how the routestopped file worked. From
shorewall.conf(5):

stoppedrules
    If ADMINISABSENTMINDED=No, a warning message is issued and the
    setting is ignored.

    In addition to connections matching entries in stoppedrules,
    existing connections continue to work and all new connections from
    the firewall system itself are allowed. To sever all existing
    connections when the firewall is stopped, install the conntrack
    utility and place the command conntrack -F in the stopped user exit
    (/etc/shorewall/stopped).
