Good news! If I remove the applet, the menu item will return. Bad news: There is an old idea in user interface design, the "principle of least astonishment".
This automagic feature is a bad idea. If one is dismayed that the quit menu item is missing, why would one remove the only quit feature that seems available? It is like expecting the sleepy person who wants to go to bed but who is without a flashlight to pull his main circuit breaker. (OK, strained analogy, but I think you can get it.) Yes, it is good to catch users with clever behavior, but don't get too clever. Present a clear circumstance. Anyway, thanks for the tip. -kb, the Kent who hasn't tried it yet. -- no "usability sane" way to reboot jaunty without mouse https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/337775 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
