Description
The spec just says:
A value of true indicates that this 'terminate' request is part of a restart sequence.
It is not clear what this means, exactly - the term restart sequence is not defined anywhere. It seems like it is connected in some way to "restart" request, but it's not clear how they all interact.
(#73 is possibly related)
