Add restart option to FileVault profile
Currently, FileVault will not be enabled on MacOS until the user either logs out or logs in, depending on how it is configured. It would be great to add the ability to restart the machine once enrollment is complete to ensure FileVault is enabled as soon as possible.

Apple does not currently support an option within the FileVault configuration payloads to force a restart. However, the option to enforce FileVault encryption does now exist and is supported in SimpleMDM ("Force FileVault to be enabled in Setup Assistant"). This may likely achieve a similar goal. We will monitor Apple developments closely in case any new options related to this become available.
