Public bug reported:
Selecting one of these options from the indicator-session menu:
Log Out...
Restart...
Shut Down...
gives you a dialog. However it is a modeless dialog so can easily get lost
behind other windows. And they can't be found in the Unity Launcher either,
because they're only dialogs.
The fix:
These dialog windows should be made modal.
Further notes:
The offending binary is: /usr/lib/indicator-session/gtk-logout-helper when run
with either -l, -r or -s.
Notice however that the package gnome-session-bin provides alternative dialogs
which are correctly displayed as modal:
gnome-session-save --shutdown-dialog
gnome-session-save --logout-dialog
