With any turbo it is a good idea to let the engine idle briefly before turning it off. This allows the turbo to slow down before losing lubricant. If you don't let it idle it probably won't hurt anything, but over time it may cause the turbo to wear out faster.

If you accidentally put unleaded gasoline in a diesel engine and then drain the fuel out is there anything else that you have to do before refilling with diesel?

no... a diesel will run a lot better on gasoline than a gasoline motor will run on diesel... If you fill it with diesel fuel you should have no problems Correct. You should not have any problems after draining tank and refilling. If you started the vehicle or tried to start the vehicle it may not be a bad idea to change the fuel filter. If you ran the vehicle on the diesel - gasoline mix until it died before you realized what happened it is possible (but not likely) to have internal damage; but at this point there is nothing you can do but drain the fuel, change filter, refuel, and see what happens.
