That might be the simpliest but using kill to stop tomcat can prevent services from properly shutting down potentially causing data loss depending on your application. In a development environment that is likely a good solution but in a production environment I don't think that is a good idea.
Changing the shutdown name seems like the best solution for my uses. That is effectively the password mechanism I was hoping the Bootstrap class supported. I might also look into how the jvsc would work but I still think the tomcat shutdown script is going to be the safest method.
