Re: Shutdown and restart

Hiding things like this will make people think twice about giving gnome-shell a try.  If you can't perform simple tasks using obvious methods, then the UI is not doing it's job.   I like gnome-shell, but I know how people are.  

It might not do any good saying anything at this point, but it's such a simple thing.

The thing is, UI freeze has already passed.  We can't really make any changes to the UI at this time.  So while we can talk about it we can't make any change prior to release.
Yes, as I am aware of it. Wanna prove a point further. :)

The change isn't too bad I think.  If we document that we need to do "press alt" as part of the change then that might work.
It may or might not work for end users(these beings will never read manuals until being forced to do so). Documentation will always work for IT people of all sorts because that is part of what we do.

 Also, distros might decide that they need to add the shutdown option and might do that on their own.
Yes, its a good thing, being this is a minor design issue, the design team could go on hiding those buttons.

 But I don't think continuing to talk about it here is going to contribute to any significant changes prior to release given our deadlines.
