"poweroff -f" forces halt to run, which isn't the cleanest way to shut
things down. "-f" might be related to an issue lns noticed with thin
clients not being able to power back up after shutdown (that has yet
to be completely verified). "poweroff -p" should be no different than
"poweroff" because poweroff is "halt -p".

I'd argue that "poweroff -p" should be changed to "shutdown -h now" as
to allow the shutdown to take care of everything smoothly. Is there a
reason *not* to just use the standard and recommended method of
"shutdown"?
