On Bionic, the default Gnome 3 session does handle the signal and logs the user off to GDM, but GDM does not tell that shutdown is pending and the user may think that she/he can log in again or should to something to really start the shutdown. With Ubuntu's default configuration the confusion only lasted up to 5 seconds (default max delay for inhibitor locks), but the next upload of unattended-upgrades increases the delay up to 30 seconds which is more than noticeable (LP: #1803137). Please consider either logging the user off from Unity and stopping GDM to switch over the plymouth shutdown screen or at least showing a notification about the ongoing shutdown.
