I am considering dropping the graceful cleanup feature in the new TS version I am working on.

Would that be a game-changer for you?

This is a pretty popular feature used in many widely-used projects: https://github.com/search?q=%2Ftmp%5C.setGracefulCleanup%2F+%28language%3AJavaScript+OR+language%3ATypeScript%29&type=code

It'd be a shame to lose it.

Reading the docs, I'm not sure that there's a way to hook into worker exit from within the worker (only outside), so I'm not sure that this issue is fixable. But I don't think that's a reason to drop the feature.
