I have to agree with everyone else here.  Give us an option to bring the
icons back in the system menu.  I don't even use the system menu per se,
but I've added the "Main Menu" to get rid of all the other clutter, and
I've configured everything such that it's in the place where (as a
migrating user of unmentionable OSs) the Start menu would be.  It used
to be that I could use my keyboard shortcut to pop open the main menu
and shut down from there, but now I can't.

And I don't like the idea of not being able to use FUSA in order to get
my buttons back, because this is a multi-user system.

I also use compiz, so the keyboard shortcuts to navigate to FUSA from
the main menu don't work for me.

This seems to be an ill-thought-out change based on principle above all,
but the entire point of usability, and the reason for all of the
heuristics (such as the above-quoted avoidance of duplicity) is for a
user to be able to do things without thinking about them.  This makes me
think about them, whereas before I did not, so this design choice was
adhering to a heuristic and in the process missing the point.
