Before the command should be execute the notification should me ask if I really want to quit/restart the server (yes/no), when aktive tasks (e.g. compact, fixup) are in process.
In my opinion it is critical to stop such processes during runtime.
When I acknowledge the notification with (Y)es the server stops all active tasks immediately. With (N)o I can stop my decision to quit/restart the server and could use the console command with an additional parameter instead e.g. quit -wait / restart server -w
When I posted the idea I had only thought of sending the notification to the server console.
... but with your good question I have the idea to enhance the console commands with a new parameter -n or -n "<notification message>" to notify the users before execute the command.

What should this notification do? Meaning who/what should be notified? All users?
Maybe this could be solved by a new parameter for expample:
quit -w
w = wait for active tasks to finish (new tasks will not be started due to server shutdown is in progress)
