Public bug reported:

In Horizon, "Terminate Instance" is used for the action menu corresponding to "nova delete <server>".
"Terminate Instance" actually will delete a given server.

However, from what I have heard from end-users not familiar with
OpenStack dashboard, it seems end-users do not associate "Terminate
Instance" with deleting a server completely. They tend to think that it
forces servers to be shutdown (like virsh destroy).

IMHO "Delete Instance" is preferred and looks confusing.
