[Bug 282403] Re: Cannot shutdown or restart when more than one user is logged in

I think this has to do with the fact that in Ibex normal users are not
supposed to be able to shut down the computer when other users are
logged in.  Try shutting down fro the system menu, for example.  Except,
after you get dumped back to GDM by trying to shutdown using the
switcher applet you can shutdown the computer from there without any
permissions or dialog boxes.  This seems to be a fundamental issue with
controlling when the computer can be shutdown because could always get
back to GDM by logging out.
