You have been subscribed to a public bug:

On Ubuntu 14.04, the usual behavior of the power button is bringing a
dialog with options (Lock, Suspend, Restart, Shutdown) and waiting for
the user's choice.

When a Qt application is running, for instance Qt Creator or Texmaker,
(but not VLC, Clementine or Skype) and the power button is pressed, it
instantly closes that Qt app (http://qt-
project.org/forums/viewthread/47632/), brings the shut down dialog and
then shuts down the computer without waiting for the user’s choice.

I first asked about this on this forum: http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/53243/#222409
and reported it at Qt Creator, thinking it was the only application causing it, where they told me to report it to Canonical: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-14030
