Bug Description

(First comment of http://usoft.posterous.com/new-package-into-our-repository)

boxee seems to replace XBMC.Quit() with XBMC.Shutdown() while running in standalone mode.
This makes boxee shutdown the system at every quit, even if it is running without -standalone switch.

A simple workaround may consist of:
 - Backup /opt/boxee/skin/boxee/720p/DialogButtonMenu.xml
 - Run boxee with standalone switch
 - Restore original DialogButtonMenu.xml.

This obviously is not needed in a BoxeeLive enviroinment, because it will run forever into standalone mode.
This workaround makes usage of disk resources, so may not be great on SSDs.
