Hi all, Reading through the replies from Mark Shuttleworth, Paul, Omar B., I propose the following solution. *
1. Integrate Startup Applications into the gnome control center (removal from power cog menu) 2. Add an option to restart in the power cog menu. 3. The shutdown dialog should have a 60 second timeout which still brings about the "undo" functionality but also removes the need to confirm it again by just letting it countdown to zero.* *4. Option to enable or disable login sound be presented in the sound settings dialog or under user accounts (so that each user can choose to disable or enable it)* The reason being the following, not every user changes the startup application frequently. Besides the gnome control center is coming around brilliantly and I think this is the right place to also display the Startup Application settings option. Second, for dual-boot users like me, restart is an important option which should be easily accessible. There you go, removal of one menu item to add another. @Mark, thanks for letting me know about the game, I am new to this mailing list..but I think that's a good idea for keeping the menus simple and efficient.
