Bug Description
Binary package hint: policykit
Ubuntu 9.04, all updates installed
0. If you do not have one already, set up a "Desktop user" (non-administrator) account.
1. Log in as an administrator.
2. Using the account switcher menu, switch to the non-administrator account.
3. From the account switcher menu, choose "Shut Down".
4. In the "Authenticate" window that appears, choose "Authenticate".
What happens: The dialog goes away, and nothing else. The computer does not shut down.
What should happen: Since you have not selected who you want to authenticate as, or entered that person's password, the "Authenticate" button should not be available.
(Sorry I don't have time right now to check if this is reported upstream.)
