Title:
  Application (Spotify) can prevent shutdown.

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Invalid
Status in The Session Menu:
  Confirmed
Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When clicking on "shut down" while having an open window with the
  Spotify app Ubuntu will only close Spotify's open window. I have to
  click once more to actually shut down the rest of the computer. This
  is only a minor nuisance to me, but a malevolent program  could
  probably use this property to prevent an soft shutdown by repeatedly
  spawning new windows, then it would be a problem on remotely managed
  systems.

  Most of all, it just worries me that a user application can hijack
  something like the system's ability to shut down. Makes you wonder
  what else it could do if the developer wanted it to.
