When looking at bug #577146, the thought comes to mind; is halt the
correct action to do in case of power failure?

Thing is, "halt" generally means going down for operator intervention of
some kind. Possibly hardware maintainance, perhaps to retire the system,
those sorts of longish downtime actions. Whereas shutdown due to UPS
status isn't supposed to be a prolonged outage, merely a brief downtime
until power is restored.

Given this, might "reboot" be a better init runlevel to use for UPS power
failing?
