Bug Description

The session indicator is navigable by keyboard arrow keys, but unfortunately the shutdown menu (with the options Restart, Cancel and Shutdown) is not.

You should be able to cycle between these actions with the arrow keys or tab and able to select the action with the Enter Key.
Would make mouseless usage easier (without resorting to the terminal).

Keyboard navigation is working at the moment (at least with the Freya +1 indicator)
What might be needed atm is a way to know if a destructive-action button is currently in focus on the light egtk theme.

I think that the problem here is that the dialogue is not focussed. When I go to the power menu (top right corner) and then "Switch off..." the "Are you sure you want to shut down" dialogue box is shown, but it is not focussed, the application that I was using is still focussed and all keyboard events are sent to that application.

If I click on the shut down dialogue box (not on one of the buttons but just somewhere on the box) then it becomes fully navigable with the keyboard.
