[Andrea Azzarone <1310970@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

* "Goodbye XYZ, would you like to..." is even more of a cheery non-
sequitur than usual following the warning.

This still need to be addressed.

Title:
  Power-button alert when other users are logged in is ungrammatical

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in Unity Greeter:
  Invalid
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in unity-greeter package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  1. Log in as user A
  2. Switch to user B
  3. Press the power button.

  What you see: "Other users are currently logged in to this computer,
  shutting down now will also close these other sessions. Goodbye XYZ,
  would you like to…"

  What's wrong with this:
  * The first sentence is a run-on sentence, which is poor grammar.
  * The message singles out "shutting down", when restarting also has the issue.
  * "Close these other sessions" is not the issue; potentially losing work is the issue.
  * "Goodbye XYZ, would you like to..." is even more of a cheery non-sequitur than usual following the warning.

  What you should see: Something like "2 other users are logged in.
  Restarting or shutting down will close their open applications and may
  cause them to lose work."
