I’m not sure about point 1 is a good enough reason not to do it either.
If the goal is to sigterm all daemons that are expected to save state
successfully in the 3 seconds (or is it 5 seconds) before the eventual
sigkill, then I reckon it’s not a problem to do this for pulseaudio,
even though it does potentially save state.  I can’t imagine it ever
taking that long anyway.

So I think I’ll go ahead and apply your patch.
