It doesn't seem to work. Actually, I'm just unsure what kind of status is returned when I do sudo shutdown 0. I tried to figure out what status is being returned, but I simply couldn't. Any idea?

What benefit would more experience with systemd bring, when both question and answer are clearly upstart? On that note, consider your answer and the notion of hand-rolling your own restarts in the light of upstart's respawn stanza.

Ah, my mistake. I looked at Mint17 (the VM I had available) and I saw systemd; clearly Mint17 is recent enough to have it but Ubuntu 14 is not. I agree that it would be nice if his Guide were better integrated into upstart, but I was trying not to modify his guide too much. In any case, it looks like status works the same way in both.
