Valid points, but you're pointing out what "windows users" are
expecting.

So in windows (since vista), the behavior is to offer a *few common
options*.

Not saying we should offer "all" those options and clone their screen,
but most likely the 2 or 3 that "different users" would be expecting.

Else this could become an endless discussion since from memory the behavior of 
this shortcut in Ubuntu has changed in almost every release...
Someone has always found that it needed to do something different. So maybe 
providing a dialog with more than one option would be the best solution for the 
majority.

Am sure microsoft has done quite a good amount of user/enterprise
testing for choosing to provide that screen. So imho maybe some user
testing would be needed here to offer the best choices.
