Mostly we wouldn't want to. iirc, there was some discussion here about not even
permitting "echo 5 >/proc/acpi/sleep". If I am forced to recover from the (too
frequent) situation where my laptop freezes and ignores the keyboard, I have to
hold down the power button for 4 or 5 seconds, as you mention. But that, like
S5, is an abrupt power-off. Generally, I'd want to go through init and do it
gracefully. Pushing the power button once is enough to generate a power button
event in acpi, and then acpid shuts the machine down using '/sbin/init 0'
