We have a shutdown task, but it's home-grown and things tend to need some
input to get the system down.
As such, the proposed command would have limited application here, but it
would have application elsewhere (see Brunos post), so there should be no
downside. So long as it queried the operator for confirmation similar to
the V XCF,xyz,OFF.

Bruno, I saw a flyer for a product called iPLeasy a while back; ran
shutdown/IPL from a web client.
Don't know about automating/scripting it. Couldn't find a hit on google -
maybe it was just vapourware.
