Sorru, I missed this email. I believe the lack of interest is that the
official daemontools method for dealing with blocking on exit was to
have your caller bring everything down, then signal the scanner to bail.
Or in the case of systemic shutdown, term everything and then wait for
each supervisor to exit independently.
Additionally, runit is considered finished software by the author, so
if it solves a problem for you great! But don't expect it to get
upstreamed.
If you have the flexibility to change supervisors, I'd suggest switching
to s6. It already supports blocking shutdowns via the signal redirection
mechanism, and has a richer support tooling ecosystem.

Like I said earlier, if it works for you that's awesome, but I think the
runit community has alreaey built toolimg around handling the standard
(albiet annoying) runit mechanisms.
