Yea, this has crazy variants everywhere. To me, restart is not
a variant of shutdown either, yet the vast majority of menu configs
seem to want me to click shutdown so I can then click restart.
More often than not, I avoid the menus completely and just
type "reboot" in a terminal (now all the sticklers can tell
me reboot is totally unsafe and I should be typing shutdown -r :-).
