Comment 4 for bug 50209

Anything would probably be an improvement over the current dialog in Dapper. I have to come in and start up a couple machines a week from folks with walnut-sized brains who are accustomed to clicking the lower right button on any popup window they're too lazy to read. In this case, they select 'shutdown,' (the shiny red button on the lower right) and as they're walking off to go sniff glue and forget about their computing experience, the computer is merrily shutting itself down.

This wouldn't be the nightmare it is, if there was a way to disable shutdown privileges for GNOME, but I can't find a way to do that. The next best thing would be to put something less intrusive in the lower right.

Anybody know where to buy a cattle prod that can be activated via bluetooth?
