Rationale for adding icons: 1) The standard shutdown (power) icon, and the restart (circular arrow) are almost universally recognised (to the extent that you wonder if we could actually remove the text).
2) Colours only work if you can discriminate between then. Red and green are alas an unfortunate combination (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_blindness#Red.E2.80.93green_color_blindness) 3) if you inadvertently change your language to a language you don't actually understand, you have a hope of selecting the correct option if you can recognise the icon :-) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to unity8 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1377146 Title: shutdown menu should show icons Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Holding the physical power button displays the shutdown menu with options to shutdown, restart or cancel. These buttons are colour-coded but for added clarity I think we should add icons to represent the operations. Note that if this menu is changed, there are other parts of the system that also offer similar shutdown/restart menus (see bug 1377145) so ideally they would also be modified (or even better they would make use of the "one true" shutdown menu to avoid inconsistency).
