Oops I did it again...

Grrr... I have a good idea. Why don't we get rid of the "Shutdown" button on the upper right corner.

I'm serious.

Hands up if you have accidentally halted your host because "something" "somewhere" un-selected the VM that you intended to shutdown.

This was not the first time this happened.
I think all 3 buttons that are related to "power" options ie. Start, Shutdown & Reset on the upper corner should be moved or removed completely and that corner should be left to the hosts not the clients.

can you please submit a bug report a bugzilla.proxmox.com ?
I think we could fix this by forcing to enter the node name before shutting down
this is similar to what we have when destroying a VM/ container

This should be similar to the effect of the molly-guard debian package.

Bug 1095 has been successfully created.

PS. Halt confirmation is a good idea but I still think you should separate the management locations of Host and Client for clarity.

I second this. I too feel that the vm/container and host controls are too close to each other.
