In F21 it worked exactly the same way....  If you are logged in on the KDE 
GUI....

A.  Type "reboot" or "systemctl reboot" at the command line in konsole the 
system immediately reboots.

B.  Select "reboot" or "shutdown" from the klauncher you get a 30 second 
countdown a grayed screen.

C.  Select "reboot" or "shutdown" from the sddm login screen system immediately 
reboots or shuts down.

If you ssh into an F21 system and type "reboot" or "systemctl reboot" you must 
authenticate.
