Summary: Shutdown/Reboot Indication
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.4.5
Reported In:
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist

Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
When shutting down a PC, it can sometimes take some time, especially with a
slower PC or many open Programs that need to close. As it stands right now, as
far as i could tell, KDE Plasma has no way of indicating that a Shutdown or a
Reboot is in Progress. So when I open the start menu and hit shutdown (and then
optionally again in the confirmation dialog), it might look like nothing is
actually happening for a few seconds until the screen turns black and
eventually (if configured) shows the Plymouth Shutdown Animation or the
scrolling text. I think the UX could be improved a lot by having some sort of
indication, either just a Notification, by showing something similar to the
Splash Screen when plasma starts, or maybe even (don't know if that would be
possible) showing what Programs/Services are holding up the shutdown/reboot
process, maybe even giving a cancel or force shutdown/reboot continuation
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Startmenu
2. Press Shutdown
3. Possibly wait for whatever amount of time without knowing what or if
something is going on
4. Screen Turns Black and Shutdown/Reboot is aparent
