I disagree with the idea. Some people have put cluster-managed file
systems in /etc/fstab, causing file system corruption. Anything -
anything at all - that minimizes the amount of damage caused by mistakes
like this is not only important.
Furthermore, if it's a specific agent that's sending the email, then
you're going to have to set up agent parameter inheritance for service%
cleanstart. While not hard, it is not an OCF-compatible structure.

I think it would be better to add an environment variable which
indicates that the resource manager is an initialization path, and let
agents check for that.
e.g.
_INIT=yes
(or something)
...
stop)
if [ -z "$_INIT" ]; then
email_someone_NOW
fi
do_stop_stuff
exit $?
;;
...
(only exists during the "initialization" path)
While this also isn't OCF-compatible, at least this way, it wouldn't
introduce any incompatibilities between running your agent on CRM and
running it on rgmanager.
