I've spoken to some of you about this, but at this point need a larger

Do we have code in Firefox that would cause us to create a new content
process, after we've entered shutdown?
I understand the possibility of user action that would create a new
content process followed quickly by one that would cause shutdown, and
the timing making it so that the new content process initialization
can then happen out of order, but I'm more asking about the explicit
scenario.
Yes, we probably do. I've recently run into problems where the
BrowserPageThumbs service ran during shutdown and wound up
initializing a new remote browser after shutdown had started.
That should be fixed now, and generally only happened during
extremely short sessions, but it did happen, and I wouldn't be
surprised if we have similar issues elsewhere.
I'm not aware of any cases where we'd do something like this
intentionally, though.
