Description (last modified by )
I would like to suggest the creation of a 'quit mode' requested by user:
the Boinc Manager continues all tasks until all of them are finished (and uploaded if connected to the Internet) without starting new tasks until next boot and then it shuts down the computer.
:)

Note: See
TracTickets for help on using

The option is already there. See UnixClient commands, for the commandline options. Especially the debug options at the bottom, --exit_when_idle will do that.
Having the client shut down the computer is dangerous. What if someone else manages to remote control your BOINC? He can then shut your computer down by just telling BOINC to do so.
