Whatever the majority wants. I'd also say that the Power button should shutdown without confirmation unless there is a recording going on or a plugin is Active(). To avoid accidental shutdowns it might still prompt the user with "Shutdown - press any key to stay up" or something like that for a few seconds, but it shouldn't be necessary to confirm anything, even if a replay is currently going on.
