I had no intentions of suggesting we remove the shutdown command from 
the desktop environment.  I had suggested that we could make its 
availability configurable for individual user accounts.  I don't think 
removing shutdown for all of Gnome's users is a good solution here.  
That would be removing functionality used by many to help a few.  Make 
it something administrators can configure, but the default should be to 
present the user with all system options in the dialogue.  Whether or 
not we need all the current options is another discussion ;)

Just a caveat on your comment above, I want to ensure my original 
comment was clear.
