I'm not so sure that sealing them into dark space is possible though. I mean, we see them moving towards the galaxy at the end of ME2. Clearly they must think it possible, even without the Citadel relay, to get to the galaxy soon enough to wipe everyone out before we advance too far. Just sealing them in and going "Well, now our grandkids can deal with them" or, "Somebody else's problem now" doesn't seem a particularly satisfying conclusion to the trilogy to me. It needs to be something more dramatic and decisive. Though I do agree with you on the "fire-and-forget" front.
