I'd maintain them as *options*, something that you could restrict, or
allow.

I've had a related desire:  I wish the machine's power button could
initiate a shutdown at the login screen, just like it can do when a user
is logged in.  I think that those sort of things, what the hardware
buttons do (power/sleep/etc.), should be per-machine configuration, not
per-user.
