[Openstack] Async API and graceful stop

Hello,

I am wondering if is there support for asynchronous operation in the REST
API. Particularly I am looking at start and stop server operations.

For the stop operation, if I'm not mistaken, it is realized as a Nova
extension "os-stop". Is there any documentation for it?

Is it possible to issue a graceful/soft stop, something like for reboot:
http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-compute/2/content/Reboot_Server-d1e3371.html
?

In this case the async API would be useful as stopping the machine would
take some time.

Thanks,
Radek
