When the user clicks on "Logout", or "Restart" or "Shutdown", a window pop-ups and requires the user to confirm his action.
I believe this window is useless, anti-productive (loss of time for the user), and should be removed. [Workaround : Alt-F2 enter "gconf-editor", Apps>indicator-session, and tick suppress-logout-restart-shutdown]
If you really want to keep it (for which purpose?), please add a "Don't show this window any more in the future" option in the confirmation window.
If I remember well, in Karmic there was a 60s delay after which the confirmation was automatically activated. I don't think this was a good idea, for security matter, and also because Ubuntu boot is (/should be) now faster than 60s.
Hope this helps making Ubuntu better. |

The only reason that would make me keep it is Accessibility : some people can't target very sharply with the mouse (but in this case we should improve all other applets' accessibility...). For this reason, we could add a "Don't show this window any more in the future" option in the confirmation window, so that the user has the choice to remove it or not.
