Comment 4 for bug 274146

I raised bug #274576 which has been marked as a duplicate of this bug.

I don't quite understand all the options described above but I think the bug I raised is related but actually not a duplicate. The bug I raised wasn't about the placement of the new fast-switch button, but the fact that the new button does not contain all the functionality of the old applet - the main thing being that I can't 'shutdown' from the new button. Is this intentional or should the new button include all the old options?
