Tony's point was that we can't simply kill all python processes from taskkill or one of these scripts without killing ourselves or our parents. Are you suggesting that we rewrite one of these so that it isn't in Python?

Since buildbot is in python, it can't call a script that kills all python processes, or it itself would be killed (causing the whole build to fail). You're not suggesting we rewrite buildbot, presumably, so I'm not sure how this would work?
