    Minor Suggestion: If you have an open VM, and attempt to restart or shutdown the mac, in theory all programs should close which means my parallels VM also closes (actually suspends) but then the parallels application seems to briefly open and then close which prevents the machince from restarting as OS X thinks another program is trying to open during the restart process. Of course I can then go to the restart command again and it will work, but I should not have to do this twice due to a strange brief re-opening behavior of parallels manager upon VM closing. Any way to modify this behavior?

    See the attached screen shot for the error I get that I think should be corrected.

    The same issue still exists in PD5 -- it's very, very annoying to have to shut down / restart twice every time.
