Hello Pedro and Joachim,

I am also very confused as to what this checkbox is INTENDED to do.
Some guesses as to the intended meaning might be:

1. Instead of 'Show actions menu' it should read 'Hide actions menu' - but I 
doubt it because of the other related checkbox.
2. In the tooltip of the checkbox "When this is off" should read "When this is 
checked"
3. In the tooltip of the checkbox "one of the actions" should read "shutdown 
and restart actions"
4. In the tooltip of the checkbox "available anywhere" really means during the 
gdm login screen and during the Log Out screen.  Maybe those should be 
specified directly.

So instead of what it reads currently perhaps it should read "When this
checked restart and shutdown actions will be available from the login
and logout  screens."

A separate issue has to do with the checkbox functionality, but that
belongs in a different bug report.

** Changed in: gdm (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => Confirmed
