[Bug 1169763] Re: When restart button pressed, the restart offers shutdown and restart

Is it possible to make the Restart/Shutdown dialog window highlighted
with either "restart" or "shut down" depending on the previous action?

For example, if you clicked restart from an Update Manager dialog, then
the Restart button on the left will be highlighted and you just hit
Enter to complete the action. Similarly, if you clicked on a Shut Down
option from the system menu, then the Shut Down button on the right
would automatically be highlighted.

Title:
  When restart button pressed, the restart offers shutdown and restart

Status in “update-manager” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  This is an implementation bug that I am pointing, and not a bug as
  described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-
  manager/+bug/1033226

  When restart is needed, the offered option is a "Restart" button. What
  a user is waiting to happen is the system to restart. Instead,
  clicking the "Restart" button doesn't restart the system, instead it
  offers more options, like shutdown and restart.

  What should have happened:

  * Clicking  "Restart" should immediately restart the system as the
  button suggests.

  What is proposed :

  * Clicking  "Restart" should start a countdown (30 sec ?) indicating that the system will perform a restart
  * The countdown window should offer a cancel button in case that the restart button was pressed by accident.
