I willing to put hands on this, but I would need some guiding to make a
click package from the source tree after fetching this from 

bzr branch lp:ubuntu-terminal-app/reboot

mostly because I'm not used to this Ubuntu SDK and the tool chain behind
this. Once the terminal app click package is there, I think I know how
to add the existing (but not working) mut click packga.

I don't think so. It is related but not the same problem.
