Bug Description

In Unity 7, when you click Log Out in indicator-session, a dialog pops up to ask if the user would like to either Lock the machine or Log Out. Similarly, when Shut Down is chosen, the dialog asks the user to either Reboot or Shut Down.

Currently, in the Unity 8 desktop, indicator-session still only show Log Out and Shut Down, so Reboot is not even possible.

I think Unity 8 should display similar dialogs and offer the same actions as Unity 7, at least for now until we get new input from Design.

    (LP: #1410131)

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Add a wrapper for handling the
    /org/gnome/SessionManager/EndSessionDialog DBus object used by
    indicator-session. This allows indicator-session to properly talk to
    the Unity 8 session management functions. (LP: #1392187)
  * Allow for proper logout session management. This uses the
    EndSession() Upstart DBus method on the current session bus. (LP:
    #1360316)
  * Make the Unity 8 session dialogs behave in the same fashion as Unity
    7. From indicator-session: Clicking "Log Out" will now present a
    dialog to "Lock", "Log Out", or "Cancel". Clicking "Shut Down" will
    now present a dialog to "Reboot", "Shut Down", or "Cancel". (LP:
    #1416074)

  [ Daniel d'Andrada ]
  * Add NO_TESTS cmake option to skip tests and therefore speed up
    builds
  * Remove enums and properties that doesn't exist in the real
    ApplicationManager
  * Stabilize some Shell qml tests

  [ Josh Arenson ]
  * Create a PhysicalKeyMapper to handle all physical/hardware keys (LP:
    #1390393)

  [ Michael Terry ]
  * Make the draggable part of the right edge (during the tutorial) a
    constant size, instead of having it grow and shrink as the spread
    peeks out from the side.

  * Launchpad automatic translations update.
