(Get the code!)
Ok, seems I found out exactly what happens.
So If you boot Raring, log on to guest session (I had initially logged on to guest session by mistake), click on the gear icon on the status bar and select change user, enter the desktop session of the user you created during install and click on the gear icon and select both shutdown or reboot, you will not be able to shutdown or reboot, you will be brought back to logon screen and you will not be able to shutdown or reboot from there either.
To shutdown or reboot you have to log back on to guest session, select logout from the gear icon dropdown menu, log back on to the desktop session of the user you created during install and then you will be able to shutdown or reboot.
From this I understand that if guest is not logged out you will not be able to reboot or shutdown.
This may be fine, but at least there should be a message warning the user that he cannot shutdown or reboot because there is a user still logged on.
If no message is diplayed it looks like there's a bug but instead you cannot reboot or shutdown as a user i still logged on to his session.
