It seems to me that agents and functions like pmap should require additional coding. Given the problem you've encounter, maybe a cached thread pool isn't the best choice, especially if one proposal to deal with this situation is to lower the keep alive value to the point that this thing isn't much of a pool anymore.
A simple thread-per-task executor service implementation as the default could work just as well and not require a shutdown. For other needs, something like an *executor* for client code to provide custom executors tweaked or implemented as needed, instead of trying to agree on some policy. For you case, I'd go for a custom thingy and avoid code that will leave threads alive.
