I agree. Ctrl+Alt+Del should bring a small overlay window with
several items in it, and the user should be able to move the focus
in there with cursor keys. I believe that would be the best
implementation. Then, all you'd have to do is press Ctrl+Alt+Del,
press left or right or up or down and press return.
The reason Dash is there is to start an application and if
"Shutdown" will show up first when "sh" is typed, then it would make
things much slower when I try to start an application that starts
with "sh". Many people WILL end up turning their systems off when
all they tried to is start an application. This will apply to all
other sessions actions that will be in Dash (logout, restart, etc).

type "sh" for things other than "shutdown".
Moreover, for me it is faster to hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and click the
dialog than it is to sift through things that begin with "sh" in
the Dash on my personal system. Conversely, the Ctrl+Alt+Del
method does not pose clutter with other items beginning with "sh".

Why? Because winkey+"sh"+enter is an order of magnitude
faster for me, compared to reaching for the mouse, clicking an
icon, selecting a menu option and clicking a dialog button
(all in different locations of the screen). I expect most
heavy keyboard users will feel the same.
If you don't like typing "shutdown", feel free to not type
"shutdown" and use the cog instead. That cog option is always
there - there's absolutely no reason to remove the alternative
dash option.
