Leave the mouse on top of the power key on the keyboard?

Actually, this may not be a good idea.  One gets interesting results
if one selects "SHUTDOWN" or "RESTART" while holding this key down.
For example, I get the "You may now shut down the Mac" dialog that one
would expect on an SE or a Plus.  Then it restarts.  But the keyboard
is dead.  The machine needs to be rebooted to get the keyboard back
to life.  I don't know if this would happen after a power failure.
