You must not have small children.  My power and reset button just make a 
clicking sound - cause I disconnected the wires to it! Even my littlest figured 
out 
how to hold the button for 4 seconds to power it off.

It turns on by IR remote, and shuts down cleanly by IR remote. If I have to 
force
it off, I pull the plug.

Also, mythfrontend runs from a script which starts it in a loop. So if it ever 
crashes
(which it rarely ever does), or if someone accidentally exits out of it (more 
likely), it 
starts right back up.
