Manually removing the two .sh files removes them from the UI, so it appears they are not cleaned up properly on uninstall.

Before you uninstall, you need to uncheck "Keep Settings" in the General Tab.

Is there a compelling reason to keep the shell scripts around even if the user didn't choose that? Typically a user would only expect "settings" to be kept (read: items in config.xml) and not files on the disk. But if there is a compelling case to keep them, it may be OK.
Ideally they should be cleaned up on uninstall, though.

Verified that this is no longer a problem. Unchecking the save settings checkbox and then removing the package properly removes these scripts and the messages from the shutdown messages.
