Power management actions don't give any visual indication - joebrady - 2013-01-24

Problem: Pressing suspend, shutdown, reboot or any of the power management doesn't yield any visual interaction that the power management action is happening.

Solution: Pop up a busy dialog with cancel (if the powermanagement system allows for cancelation) or with animations (like a tube tv going down Tongue) make it very clear that the system _is_ shutting down and that no further interaction with XBMC is possible.

An initial fix is in master, https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/2500

The interaction could be made nicer and not just a simply busy dialog though. But I don't think we have a good way to tell the skin "animate to shutdown"? Or?
