At least mine : HDT.
The more functions will be available to detect hw or take action on it, 
the  more HDT will evolve ;o)

Being in position to shutdown the pc could be part of the scripting 
action of HDT. I'm not enought ACPI expert to image all the usage that 
ACPI can offer me. As a my first start I was trying to detect the 
tables, but why not reporting more info like fan / temp / trip points / 
etC..

Cheers,
