…nding Restart and Shut Down ran `/sbin/reboot` and `/sbin/shutdown now` directly. On systemd setups these need elevated privileges, so for an unprivileged user they silently do nothing; where they do run they act immediately with no confirmation, even though the entries are labelled "Restart..."/"Shut Down..." and emulate the macOS Apple menu, which always confirms. Route Restart, Shut Down and (for consistency) Log Out through the org.kde.LogoutPrompt D-Bus interface, which shows Plasma's standard confirmation dialog and needs no elevated privileges. Also remove an invalid `width: parent` binding on the System Preferences delegate (an Item was assigned to the real-typed `width`); width is already handled by Layout.fillWidth.

/sbin/rebootand/sbin/shutdown nowrequire elevated privileges on systemd systems (so they silently do nothing for an unprivileged user) and, where they do run, act immediately with no confirmation — even though the entries are labelled "Restart…/Shut Down…" and emulate the macOS Apple menu, which always confirms.org.kde.LogoutPromptshows Plasma's standard confirmation dialog and works without privileges.Testing
Plasma 6.6.4, Wayland, Ubuntu 26.04. Each entry now opens the expected Plasma confirmation dialog; lock / sleep / settings / app-store entries unaffected.
