Why not simply have  "Quit Serving" next to the search button in the
served pages?  The server can even serve a friendly page explaining
how it can be restarted before quitting.

This would work as well, but for starters, I think "Search" and "Quit"
buttons next to each other will be most familiar to the users of the
current Tk-based control window.
