Bug Description

ubuntu-device-flash: 0.4+14.10.20140912-0ubuntu1

Steps to reproduce:

Connect a handset, and flash it to a particular channel:

$ ubuntu-device-flash --channel ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09

(any channel will be the same).

The device flashes, and boots to the welcome wizard first page.

If the device has no method of powering off (eg devices with bug #1364984, or which are designed that way), then the phone cannot be placed into a box for shipping until the battery depletes.

Expected result:

It would be preferrable to have some sort of --power-down flag which instead of the final boot into ubuntu, powered the device down, so that it can be stored for shipping immediately.
