There is more. I have seen people sending direct messages to kernel
about
to shutdown/reboot/unmount partitions in case the display goes blank.

Does anyone know the hotkey combinations for that?
For unmounting, I think it is ctrl-alt-sysreq-u
For rebooting                                -b

Am I right? Anyone can add anything to the list? Where to locate this in
man?

Also, even when you have lost your keyboard in a machine-jam, the mouse
can come in as a wonderful device, doing all this. Press left-click and
repress right-click three times. Can initiate an activity which you tell
it to.. like shutdown.

Where to specify that, anyone?
