Description of Problem:
Before, users only had the choice to log off when they
click "Log Out" in the actions menu. Now, they are

is a security problem.

1. Install latest gnome packages.
2. Log out from gnome.

Actual Results:
User presented with many options, some of which are
security-compromising.

Expected Results:
User is only allowed to log out.

How often does this happen?
Every time.

Additional Information:
This only started happening after I upgraded to the
unstable version of Debian.
