I think that it would be fair if Kubernates sends a sigterm to OpenStack
service in a container, then wait for the service to shut down and only
then destroy the container.

It might be not very important for our case though, if we agree to split
expiration time for fanout and reply queues. And I don't know of any other
case where an OpenStack service needs to clean up on shutdown in some
external place.

Thanks,

Dmitry
