Inconsistent power off button in top-right corner across different hardware

  • On my two laptops I see no “power off” button in the very top-right corner of Tails 3.5 where the battery icon is.
    • If I remove the battery from my laptop I get a “power off” button instead of the battery icon.
    • On virtual machines, Alan sees a “power off” button instead of the battery icon.

Foundations team: Why is this inconsistent? Always showing a “power off” button would be useful for people who are new to Tails. During the Additional Software UX sprint, at least 3 people out of 7 had an issue with that.
