Is this "script that gets run when the console user presses the power
button", and is it obvious that the user could potentially want to
configure it? If so, then it makes sense that it should be a
configuration file, and so by policy 10.7.2 it should live in /etc.
(And as you point out, it's not like there aren't other admin-editable
scripts in /etc already, say, all of /etc/init.d.) My reading is that
what you're doing now is fine and the bug is wrong.
