Power config reg entry question - Vista

So, in XP you can configure the sleep button action to shutdown, but in Vista you cannot. They removed the option from the drop down list. It's kind of a pain because now the "power" button on my MCE remote wont shut it down.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Controls Folder\PowerCfg

I figure in here I may be able to edit the value that governs that behavior and force it to shutdown.

Anyone have any experience with this type of thing? I realize that screwing with the values is not really a great idea so I dont really plan on doing it unless I can get some clue as to what I'm doing.

Thanks.
