Your shutdown problems should improve with Canicule (9.2). I have run across a few machines running Bamboo (9.1) that will go through a shutdown cycle, but stop just short of actually powering off. I can't quite figure what's causing it since even the chipsets are different. I've never seen any harm from pushing the power button at that point anyway. One of the machines I was able to "cook" today is a dual processor Athlon MP 2600+ that has that same glitch in 9.1. Now that it's running a current cooker install it does what it's supposed to do. I posted a link to an online O'Reilly book that has a large alphabetical listing of commands. Most books I swear at; O'Reilly books I swear by. As for anything irreverent; that's an accurate description of yours truly.
