Title:
  stop "triggers" logout (from gnome-session?) without warning. Argument
  required but ignored?

Status in “gnome-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “upstart” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In shell:
  stop

  Result:
  "logout"

  Intended:
  Nothing (was a typo, meant to write top).

  Fortunetly I didn't loose any data, but I would have if I would have
  had any unsaved files so this is at least a critical usablity issue if
  not a security vulnerability (Denial of Service vulnereabilty from
  authenticated user.. (myself)? Didn't check the box. shutdown requires
  sudo..).

  Also (all?) other initctl commands affected:

  start
  start: Job is already running: gnome-session

  man stop
  start  JOB [KEY=VALUE]...

  stop   JOB [KEY=VALUE]...

  JOB should be required(?)

  Just in case (not sure how to report/change "Affects"), using 13.10,
  upstart 1.10-0ubuntu7, but I guess older/newer versions are also
  affected..
