Title:
Power-Cog should turn red when restart is need to complete updates
Status in Ubuntu UX:
New
Status in indicator-session package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
To inform the user that his/her action is needed to accomplish some
task relating to the Operating System (as opposed to an application),
the Power-Cog should turn red and a red highlight should color the
entry in the menu that requires action.
Restarting the OS to complete the installation of updates is such an
event. The power-cog turning red alerts the user's attention to the
event. And when the user clicks the red Power-Cog icon, an entry
should exist that reads: "restart to complete updates"
The current method of popping up a window does NOT provide a
persistent state of notice and often results in the user forgetting to
restart when an opportune time exists to do such a thing. It also
breaks the logical connection and Unity-design of displaying system
related events in the Upper-Right corner of the top-panel. "Restart"
and "Shutdown" are items in the power-cog menu and this is the
intuitive place for users to take action on such an event.
