Best way to ramp down in Jmeter?

Question

We all know Jmeter isn't the best at changing the number of active threads during the run (unless you get fancy and make separate thread groups that fire off at different intervals).

Has any come up with a good solution for ramping down at the end of the test?

For example, I start with 50 threads and within 30 minutes I want 0 active threads.
