Comment (by dcf):

 Replying to [comment:1 infinity0]:
 > - It is possible to send and trap CTRL-BREAK on python (os.kill /
 signal.signal) and C/C++, (GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent /
 SetConsoleCtrlHandler), so one option is to appropriate this for SIGTERM
 purposes, but we would need to update the PT spec to explicitly say this,
 since there is no standard behaviour for CTRL-BREAK and clients won't just
 assume this. (OTOH I am guessing Tor sends a SIGTERM on UNIX as that *is*
 the standard way to request a graceful shutdown.)

 Cross-referencing #9732, about the (non-)documentation of what pluggable
 transports should do on SIGTERM.
