I don't know if such a thing ever existed. I have tried it with the 
ancient versions Kubuntu 8.04 and 10.04 and both didn't offer that 
option.

Could it be that you are mixing up things? There is a little triangle at 
the shutdown button and I think it should offer options to suspend to 
RAM/disk and power off (I don't want to shut down now, so I didn't try 
it). If you want to reboot to a different OS, you would hold down the 
shift key during reboot. Then the grub menu should appear and you could 
select the OS you wanted.
