Bug Description

Im using redshift to handle the monitor color temperature and not go blind during nights. Unfortunately some prompts reset it back to maximum 6500.

To reproduce:

1. Install redshift.
2. Restart elementary. (the bug fixes itself after it happens once, so get a clean load)
2. Run "redshift -O 3000" to lower the temperature to 3000.
3. Try deleting a file to force an "are you sure" prompt to appear.
4. Get blinded.

That prompt will reset the temperature back to 6500, but only once. If the redshift command is used again, consecutive prompts won't reset it again.

The temperature is also reset after accepting the shut down prompt, causing the shutting down sequence to blind me. Again, this doesn't happen when the bug fixed itself and I reapplied the temperature before.

It is quite annoying.
