Shut down computer once dropbox has finished syncing

It would be useful if the computer could shutdown after syncing so that everything has been loaded up.

Now I'm uploading about 30 GB of file with 100 KB/sec. It will take about 5 days to finish sync. I wish I have optional shutdown option when sync is finnised. My desktop computer now has to be on to the office and unfortunately I install teamviewer software to check from remote and shut it down. 

Whats wrong if you add optional shutdown computer feature?
