Q: How do I configure what the Power Button does?

How do I configure my power button so hitting it does not automatically put it to sleep?

Because it is right by the delete key I am hitting it accidentally all the time.  Also my cat is constantly putting my computer to sleep when I am working.  Is there a config file or a hack I can use to force a dialog (Restart/Sleep/Shutdown/Cancel)?
