You are going to have to write your own alerts to keep control.  I would be
careful about preventing the unit from shutting down.  The power off message
is also used when the unit is in a critical power situation and you could
cause the lose of all data on the unit very quickly.   I had an issue years
ago where an app that intercepted the power off event and didn't pass it to
the OS quick enough in certain situations.  The net effect was a hard reset
within a few seconds of intercepting the event.
