Yes. There isn't a way to add a hook to do any sort of "post work" after 
an instance is brought down. That is why AutoScalingGroup and 
LoadBalancer resource usually come in pair, even though 
LoadBalancerNames isn't a mandatory property. Internally 
AutoScalingGroup triggers a load balancer reload each time it's resized, 
but that doesn't happen to any other resources (like a customized 
instance in your case). This might be something we can improve in the 
future.
