Few confirmation screen before power off manage system

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

It has been observed a couple of times in the past that the managed server on the processors (i.e. the whole machine) has been powered off accidently since the enhanced version of the GUI was available.
To avoid another accident in future can we have any field added to double confirmation (To be field manually) along with YES and NO 

Example :- Machine TYPE or NAME or Serial number

    In HMC-V10R3 old dashboard environment

    - Selected managed system without select LPAR and then System Actions -> Power Off, HMC will prompt running LPARs warning

    - Click "X" in the top corner, HMC did not quit the menu but assume "YES" is selected and ask next power off options.
