[Engine-devel] Guest Reboot

[Martin Betak]

Hi,

from the implementation discussion it seems that the behavior of reboot will be in most cases equivalent to 
pressing the current buttons stop and then start, so maybe the reboot icon should reflect that. 
Maybe a combination of red square/green triangle?

I think a Power button icon like this one - http://us.123rf.com/400wm/400/400/vipervxw/vipervxw1210/vipervxw121000044/16013272-cool-power-button-in-white-with-blue-led.jpg might work for reboot.

I think that the icon suggested in the wiki looks more like "refresh" , and it's not clear it indicates a reboot action (which is more heavy than just a refresh).
I suggest as alternative something like the "run VM" icon (the triangle - that already exists in the engine and users know what it means), and with it the arrows from the "refresh" icon.
Please see attached.
