[users at bb.net] Scripting a pausing of all build slaves/workers

[Pierre Tardy]

Hi Erik,
Do you really need to pause the workers?
Reconfiguration is supposed to be seemless.

The pause method is made for admins to pause the workers while they fix
them.

There is also the graceful shutdown procedure, which is made for restarting
the master.
