Hmm not really, because the shell still needs to run in order to run the
mailer, and it doesn't know anything about the composers...  So if you
closed the composer the shell wouldn't know when to quit.

We *could* add more interfaces to handle that, but I don't think it
woudld be a wise idea at this point.
