+1 for the idea of changing the name, as it's really confusing.
I had quick check in the patch and noticed below replacements:
-#define SmartShutdown 1
-#define FastShutdown 2
-#define ImmediateShutdown 3
+#define DumbShutdown 1
+#define SlowShutdown 2
+#define CrappyShutdown 3
About the new naming, if "Crappy" can be replaced with something else. But
was not able to come up with any proper suggestions here. Or may be
"Immediate" is appropriate, as here it's talking about a "Shutdown" operation.

I love the idea. Just in time, before the feature freeze deadline.
