it occurs to me that using your hostname in place of 'myhost' may not
work properly if there isn't an appropriate entry in /etc/hosts. not
sure if that should resolve to a 'real' IP address, or just 127.0.0.1,
or if either will work, or even if a real DNS name will work. though
"myuser ALL=/usr/libexec/xfsm-shutdown-helper" should do the trick as
well, and still prompt you for a password.
