I just hit shutdown task and walk away from it.

The ultimate shutdown command would be as immediate as possible IMO. Personally I tend to leave my PCs on all the time, and hibernate my laptop. If I had a solid state drive the hibernate and wake-up process would be almost immediate. Housekeeping tasks probably make the most sense for a pre-shutdown script, but there are perhaps better ways to perform them.
