Reconfigure the Power Button in Debian

My humble Fujitsu Futro S720 running Debian makes a decent home server. But it has one weakness: the power button is too easy to press by accident, which shuts down the machine. I know that, because I’ve done it several times. Not the end of the world, but a mild nuisance I can leave without. Turned out, it’s an easy problem to solve.
