My 2¢, about what the problem is:

1. FUSA is part of the /default/ panel config in Ubuntu, meaning that it is made harder for people who want or have to use the keyboard to execute shutdown, reboot and so forth after a fresh install. You have to opt out of it, not opt in. Also, you have to know in the first place, that it /is/ a separate component that can be removed, and you also have to know that this is the way to make another, more accessible logout dialogue magically appear. No new user will be aware of this.

2. I actually want to have FUSA. I find it hard to accept that I should have to remove it to get a working system menu back.

3. It is counterintuitive to have the shutdown and reboot command under "user", as they do not shutdown or reboot the user but the system. Therefore its only /logical/ place for people to look for it is the system menu.
