Hi again, Colin.  Related to the issue of how to communicate fenced
vs. not fenced (and how to communicate or imply Offline vs not
Offline), do we need to communicate in the log that a broker has
gracefully shut down?  We do distinguish between a broker being
unavailable due to a controlled shutdown vs. having died -- one that
dies appears in the metadata as being Offline, whereas one that
gracefully shuts down does not.  I don't see a way to imply this
gracefully-shutdown state, though I may be missing it.
