Who uses power down anyway? Just close your lid or press the power button once. The type of power down can be configured for both these actions.

I maybe shut down fully or restart once every second month and then i actually don't mind if it takes one click more.

Pressing the power button will do one of three things: suspend, hibernate, or power off. Do you know which one it does on my machine? Because I don't.
