[mythtv-users] System Exit Key in 0.24

Hi everyone,

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I am in the process of upgrading from 0.23 to 0.24 and I noticed that the "System Exit Key" selection is no longer in the mythfrontend general preferences.  This was a key feature for me (no pun intended), since I never exit mythfrontend during normal usage and sometimes like to keep hitting exit to get to the root menu.  Also, I have my remote custom configured to send a bunch of exits with the off button so you can can just push off even if you're watching something.  In other words, this was a really nice preference and now it seems to be gone.  Anyway, I have searched the archives and haven't come up with much other than the release notes for 0.24 which say "System Exit Key - Replace with keybindings [24722]".  The link to that ticket is dead.  What does this mean, "replace with keybindings"?  I have looked through the keybindings and I don't see anything related to system exit key.
If anyone can help me restore the exit key to something like ctrl-esc, alt-esc, or really anything other than esc, that would be terrific and I can move to 0.24.  If not, I'm stuck on 0.23.  Thanks in advance!

Nick
