As far as qemu is concerned there's nothing special about windows being "shut
down". ie. it's not possible to tell if windows is doing something useful, or
just sitting there waiting for you to turn it off.

No. the HLT thing is just windows 9x being crap. It also happens on real
hardware.
In theory windows should be able to "turn off" qemu using APM, like it does on
real machines. However there seem to be bugs in the qemu implementation that
stop this working.
