No, applications are not supposed to ask the user anything during 
shutdown if they can possibly avoid it by doing autosaves.  See the 
previous thread on the subject, and the dire warnings in Microsoft's new 
documentation about the changes they made in Vista to avoid the all too 
common situation where some mystery program prevents your machine 
shutting down by either opening a dialog somewhere where you cannot see 
it, or not opening one at all and telling the system not to shut down at 
this time.
