More weird; the GUI does contain the feature you want, but upon looking
at the source code I found it is just named incorrectly:

Settings >
Power >
Suspend & Power Button >
When the Power Button is pressed = Power Off

actually prompts the user. It doesn't "Power Off".

So for now set it to "Power Off".
