Comment (by mback2k):

 I think .terminate() works on EBS and S3 backed instances. And because
 reusing the same instance by starting it again is also not implemented
 yet, it would make no sense to add a configurable option.

 In the long run it should be possible to create and launch an instance
 from an AMI if there is no instance yet and then let the user setup for
 example the following:

 - Start on demand.
 - Stop after 5 minutes.
 - Terminate after 30 minutes.

 That would allow for quicker restarts while the instance has not been
 terminated.

 But to fix this bug first, I suppose to just replace .stop() with
 .instance() for now.
