Might be a good idea. However what if you (you in general) explicitly *want*
your application to *ignore* NSWorkspaceWillPowerOffNotification (for
whatever reason)?

OTOH, why not just have (sort of a forced) observer for
NSWorkspaceWillPowerOffNotification in NSApplication that just calls
-terminate: on it's respective delegate? No need to add another
GNUstep-specific method (-powerOff). Just create the observer in
NSApplication-setDelegate: and you're good to go.

Just a thought.
