Bug Description
Debian provides a way for /etc/nologin to persist after a reboot by the DELAYLOGIN variable that is checked within the rmnologin initscript. upstart removes /etc/nologin without checking for this condition.
Note that I don't care about the mechanism itself, just that there be *some* way of telling the system to have an /etc/nologin in place after reboot.

I suspect the problem isn't the initscripts, but that the shutdown binary unconditionally removes /etc/nologin before it reboots the machine (because it might write to it)
