Bug Description
When the ec2 testrunner fails due to an issue in the test infrastructure, an automatic timer kicks in to kill the instance. This happens silently, which is annoying to users: the instance just disappears. ec2test should send a mail to the user before it dies stating that the automated shutdown has been triggered.

How would this work? The remote.py script can't do it. You'd have to have a second script on the instance that sends an email and shuts down, I think, and schedule *that* script to be run with 'at'.
