Package: molly-guard
Version: 0.4.4-2
Severity: wishlist

Recently we had an incident that went something like this:

  <sysadmin> otherdude: crossing fingers and rebooting now ...
  <sysadmin> bugger
  <sysadmin> shutdown -r would have been much better than shutdown -h
  <sysadmin> and it's at #%^ (remote datacenter)

So I thought that molly-guard would be a great place to perform the following
check:

  If the server is setup to be "reboot-only" then molly-guard would ask users
  that "shutdown -h" would have to type "halt" to confirm that they really
  want to halt the system.

Would the current script API be flexible enough to allow for a new script to
test for this condition (and test whether we're rebooting or halting)?
