Description

Why do we have them there? Isn't the system menu sufficient? Removing these from this menu would clean it a bit...

Remove 'Reboot' and 'Power Off' entries from Applications → System Tools (Will-fix: #11075)

These entries were added in 8b7dac2 for the Windows camouflage. But we
don't have the Windows camouflage anymore and they are cruft with the
default theme.

Assigning to next RM for first opinion.

FTR we added these menu items there because otherwise there was no way to shut down Tails cleanly in Windows camouflage mode. So if we remove them, then the Windows camouflage mode will need to re-add them dynamically (on session login I guess) when it's reintroduced.

To me this looks like a detail, and honestly I do not care, so I will not try to facilitate this discussion. Any one that cares, please assign this ticket to you, reach a decision. On approval I can implement it.
