Description Marcel Schaal 2008-09-10 23:51:26 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Hi,

after clicking on "k-menu -> leave -> shutdown" in the new k-menu of kde 4  kde displays a dialog with the same selection again. Sure the dialog is useful if you click a shutdown button of an applet, but not in k-menu. This is an useless redundancy and maybe a security risk, because a user could assume kde will shutdown after he clicked on a shutdown selection and leave is working place. 60 seconds are enough for somebody else to cancel the shutdown and take control of the computer.

Bug seen in Kubuntu intrepid alpha5 and Kubuntu hardy with extra kde 4.0 packages
