Yes, well, the KCM I suppose.

Depending on a specific user's way of using the system it may be more
appropriate to set the offline update behavior to reboot (after update the
system reboots) or power-off (after update the system powers off).

e.g. consider two office use cases:

User A has a system with SSD and tends to grab a cup of coffee after entering
the office and turning on the PC. reboot is a reasonable system for this
scenario because the user will be away from the machine for a while anyway.
Meanwhile we start into the update target, apply the update, reboot. By the
time the user is back we'd ideally be done and they can log in.

User B has a system with a HDD and doesn't drink coffee. power-off may be a
more reasonable approach. They will power off the system when they leave the
office anyway. We can simply set the offline trigger to power-off and instruct
ksmserver/the greeter to perform a reboot instead of a power-off. The user
leaves the office. The PC reboots into the update target, applies the update,
powers off.
