Public bug reported: Could the 'shutdown' option trigger the same menu you get when pressing the on/off button? This would safe space in the indicator menu, since Suspend can be removed, and would be nicer to look at. Especially for non-English languages
There are several reasons for this: 1) First: it is more consistent to use just one menu 2) When you click on shutdown you get a menu where you can choose reboot, shutdown or cancel. However, the width is determined by the length of the text "Are you sure you want to close all programs and shut down the computer?". When translated to another language, this text can be even longer (English is a short language). The effect is basically an ugly window when you want to shut down, while there is a perfectly fine window you get when you press the on/off button. So why not use that one? Thanks!
