Unmarking this as a security bug since someone with physical access can turn off the machine via other methods. From https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/Policies#Reasonable%20Physical%20Access: "While every attempt is made to securely isolate physically local users of a shared computer from one another, the stock Ubuntu installation is not intended to block an attacker with physical access."
