ACPI shutdown does not work on headless VMs / needs a display configured

[73]

If run a headless Linux, I do not configure a display. This is from the documentation:

To setup headless mode, open the virtual machine configuration and delete any display device as well as any serial device that is set to “Built-in Terminal” mode.

However, if I have no display configured, I loose the ability to invoke an ACPI shutdown, because the VMs display seems to be the only place to reach the functionality.

Proposals

Add a context menu entry, so a user can right-click the VM and power it down:

Make the long click available in the main window:

I have no preference where the button should be, but I would appreciate its existence.
