If I want to shut my laptop down I don't want to wait while logging
out and then shut it down. In fact, if I want to shut anything down
I'd rather not wait while I log out. Fortunately the Alt menu is
there, but I'm always surprised when Gnome claim to be trying to make
things more intuitive and then hide basic functionality behind secret
keystrokes or options that can only be changed through the
configuration database. Will probably be going XFCE/LXDE soon unless I
can find the time to summarise the mistakes Gnome3 seems to have made,
there's a good idea in there but it's buried under bad choices and the
usual Gnome resistance to customisation.
