Bug description:
  The task manager currently kills (upstart-stops) the apps upon the
  user requesting it to stop. It should send a quit signal instead (and
  SIGCONT it first, if stopped), so that the app can shut down
  gracefully.

  A method to forcefully quit the app is needed, too, if it's not
  responding (or maybe even just timeout-based).
