What happened?

When right-clicking a running VM in the GUI there is no distinction between "shut down" and "power off":

And, to be honest, the icons are not doing a good job to clarify – I associated the lower icon with a power button and thought, this would be the ACPI signal for ordered shutdown. But it turns out, it's the immedate power-off, which I would have assumed would be the spark/flash icon. But this might be a spearate UX bug.

The english labelling is correct, but nontheless I still think there's a gap between the icons and their function.

How can we reproduce this?

• Start Virtualbox GUI using LANG=de_DE virtualbox to force German translations
• Right-click a running VM, hover "Stop" in the menu
• You'll see two entries saying "Ausschalten", which means "power off"

Did you upload all of your necessary log files, screenshots, etc.?

• Yes, I've uploaded all pertinent files to this issue.
