Hate to answer my own question, but I figured out today that I was searching for Uninitialize when I should have been searching for IHostedServices.
There are a couple of examples others have posted in the forums, like Henrik's example here.

And Minesh's example here:

The Dev Guide for CMS 12 says this regarding Initializing the CMS (here):
Custom initialization logic can preferably be done through standard ASP.NET
Core components like for example IStartupFilter or IHostedService. The
IInitializable system (described below) within CMS that was built for
ASP.NET - where there was no central Startup class - is also available in
ASP.NET Core application and can be used also.
Has anyone successfully converted an InitializationModule with events into standard .NET Core components? I found an add-on where the Initialize() method is called during Startup/Configure() but it doesn't use an Uninitialize() method. IHostedService only has StartAsync and StopAsync which might* be comparable to Initialize() and Uninitialize(). (*I'm still learning about IHostedService.)
I have a couple of questions then:
Questions 1 & 3 could be answered if there's a diagram of the startup pipeline for CMS 12.
Thank you!!
