Package: gnome-system-monitor
Version: 2.28.1-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
In the processes tab, any attempt to access the context menu
is a 1 pixel slip away from stopping the process being examined.
If one is examining Xorg,
that is 1 pixel away from locking up the desktop.
Ctrl-alt-backspace fails, ctrl-alt-F1 fails; AFAIKT
only magic-sysreq can limit dataloss to whatever was running on X.
IMHO:
1. The user should be warned before stopping a process
2. The user should be warned specifically a second time of the consequences of
stopping X, if the process is Xorg.
3. The stop choice should NOT be near the mouse pointer for any rtclick
position.
FYI: version 3.12.2-1 has the same problem.
Thanks

Hi Charles,
I am closing this bug since upstream fixed it through "process context menu
reordered, confirmation required on stopping a process".
If you can still reproduce it feel free to reopen and provide more info.
thanks for reporting.
regards
Pedro Beja
