powerOffKey is an XCMD that can be used to disable or enable the "Are
you sure you want to shut down your computer now?" dialog that comes up
under System 7.5 when the power key is pressed. Why? Because there are
certain situations under which it is a Bad Thing for the user to be able
to shut down the computer while in the middle of a stack. Unfortunately,
Apple didn't realize this until System 7.5.3 so this XCMD does indeeed
require System 7.5.3, sorry.
