( and nobody from the desktop team well corrected him ) "It was discussed during the Test Day. I don't have a web reference for this exact issue, but the position of the design team is that they think the only common use case for rebooting is to boot into a different operating system in a multi-boot configuration, and they want to handle that as a special case somehow (a direct 'reboot to Windows' option has been suggested). They don't believe there are any sufficiently common use cases for rebooting other than that one to justify the added complexity of providing it as an option. (Desktop team, please correct me if I'm representing this wrong)." Just so we are clear on the subject the Gnome UI designer are not going to remove the ability to reboot from the desktop? ( Old mockups suggest that the ability to reboot will not be removed [1][2] ). 1. http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Whiteboards/UserMenu 2. http://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell/Design/Whiteboards/SystemStopRestart Cheers..
