Thanks to all who responded! The consensus seems to be "while a security risk, it can be done". I do understand the underpinnings of sysreq; turning it on and off, piping commands to the trigger, logging, and what-have-you, but aside from using sysreqd (one maintainer, outside the realm of RHEL repos, etc, -- not a prod. env. option) are there environment settings that might make-or-break it in a SOL session?
Thanks again!
