[Bug 1434486] Re: System management options on lockscreen

 

The intention is to prevent someone local to the computer from just
pulling the power cord or hitting the reset button when the system is
locked and they want to shut it down or log in as a different user. I
believe these dialog options are configurable via PolicyKit if you've
taken the time to harden the local environment as for kiosk use or
similar,

Thanks
