The server must be able to deal with a normal kill = You are right, there is a problem here. The main problem - which is why, as you mention - Jigsaw is fragile - is that they are no ways to tell Java to execute a hook before exiting. On UNIX, for example, you cannot catch any signals in order to do the cleanup (which is probably what you would get when typing reboot). I will try to provide something close to write-through, since this is (unfortunately) the only way to deal with it. (probably a separate thread waiting on config writes, which would save the stores ...) Thanks for the feedback, Anselm.
