Yes, this is something we need to test and verify. But this is mainly a 
shutdown of Axis2 plus any of the Jobs (new feature) started by Synapse/ESB.

I don't agree here. We are running in the web container and not an EJB 
container, and starting threads or opening sockets are not prohibited 
AFAIK. However, if thats the case - the same applies for Axis2!
