Public bug reported:
Hi,
gdm 3.6.1-0ubuntu4
gnome-shell 3.6.3.1-0ubuntu6
When logged into GNOME 3, the right-hand menu has an item "Power Off" at
the bottom. Clicking it brings up a context menu which gives you the
option of logging out or suspending as well. This is confusing as the
menu item does not end with an ellipsis, which is the traditional way of
indicating that a menu item leads to further options (e.g. "Power Off…")
When you are not logged in and are instead facing the GDM login screen,
you have the same menu (albeit with a power off icon instead of the
logged in user's name). However this time "Power Off" does just that
with no prompts.
I think the logged-in version should be qualified with an ellipsis to
indicate that it offers further choices. This would draw a distinction
between the different behaviours the item has when logged in or not.
