[Bug 79300] Deskbar "Computer Actions" unclean

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: deskbar-applet

Deskbar's computer actions are very unclean.  At the very least,
"Shutdown" and "Reboot" blurt out a 'shutdown -[hr] now' with reckless
abandon; this behavior is similar to that of GNOME's log-out menu in bug
#45689.

In my case, I noted Firefox claiming it crashed and wanting to restore
the session when I came back.  Deskbar doesn't tell gnome-session to
log-out and initiate shutdown; and so programs aren't asked nicely to
quit.  Some potential for data loss may exist here.

** Affects: deskbar-applet (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed
