I think the goal here is to allow applications to keep their resources open
if snapshotting does not entail quitting. Whatever the reasons may be.

At the moment, we collected several opinions and use cases here, which
suggest to provide two boolean variables, maybe "snapshotting" and
"quitting", in the shutdown-interface. Then we would have three different
flavors:

#shutDown
#shutDown:
#shutDown:and:

Or something like that. Classes can start using the new one if they want to.

Best,
Marcel
