KDE 4.x and the "Leave" menu

[John-Scott Atlakson]

Hi all,

I'm just a lurker on the list as a bleeding edge end-user.

As a bleeding edge user, I gave the 8.04 re-spin with KDE 4.0 a try, but
there were too many issues at the time, so I went back to 3.5.x and have
been holding out for Intrepid and the hopefully more polished/finished KDE
4.1.x.

One simple annoyance I had hoped to see eliminated is that when you click on
the Leave menu, you choose between Logout, Restart, Shutdown etc. But
clicking on any of these options just brings up another dialog providing the
exact same options. I thought with the 8.04 respin that I had just goofed
stuff up and that KDE 3.5 and 4.x were just talking at cross purposes but I
see this behavior in a clean install of the most recent Intrepid Alpha 4.

Can the secondary menu be eliminated easily, or is this more of an upstream
issue? It seems a shame after all the UI improvements to have this
completely redundant step boogering up the interface.

Anyway, I do appreciate all the time and effort that others spend scratching
their respective itches here. I'm a Python developer trying to learn PyQt
development on the side, but so far have had little time outside of my day
job to make much progress, so I apologize for only critiquing without
supplying a patch.

Cheers,
John-Scott
