Is there really no "graceful" method to stop a BYOND instance? Using kill really doesn't seem like the most wonderful option.

The "kill" command doesn't imply you're killing the process, it implies you're sending a signal to that process and allowing the process to do something based on that signal. There's a forceful signal which does an ungraceful exit (if things are locked up), there's a graceful exit which will gracefully close the game down as if you shut it down properly, and there's a reboot signal that will gracefully reboot the world.

Couldn't you just do:
pkill DreamDaemon | |
If you want to kill every instance of DD that your account is running sure. "killall DreamDaemon" would work for that too.

Now you can use the "kill" command to send a term signal to the process, type "DreamDaemon" with no arguments to see what SIGTERM signals are caught by the program (listed near the bottom)
