I agree, Sure you can shut down VLAN1, why not..
I do this for 2924, 6500, ...
And for 3550, if you have IP address one the VLAN interface and you can
access the switch via telnet, and Yes that is the management VLAN,
You do not have to put command "management" under VLAN interface, like some
older switches.

OK I'll accept your challenge since I know I can shut down VLAN 1, it
is how I access a 3512XL in the lab!!!
interface VLAN1
no ip address
no ip directed-broadcast
shutdown
!
interface VLAN64
ip address 172.28.64.4 255.255.255.0
no ip directed-broadcast
ip nat outside
!
VLAN 64 is the inband management VLAN.
