[Bug 46319] Re: System shuts down when pressing esc, when the logout dialog is shown

[Paul Sladen]

No where does 'acpi-support' perform a shutdown...  The only way would
be a failed Hibernate, however that wouldn't draw pretty shutdown
messages (Nils: do you see messages or 'usplash' pop up after you press
escape?).

The dialogue is drawn by 'gnome-session' which then uses either 'gnome-
power-manager' or 'gdm' to do its deeds, but they are only acting as
middleware.

The keystroke is causing a UI issue.  Is it something like 'escape' is
causing the window to be destroyed, which is in-turn causing some
assertion to fail.

Or more likely, 'escape' is being interpreted as 'ANY_KEY' and using the
currently right-most button ("Shutdown") to be activated?
