Please, if you port something to QML, make it at the very least exactly the same as the C++ version!

The old C++ code was based on fixed layouts and did not adapt to the
font size the user specified. On high-dpi displays, which get
increasingly more common, the shutdown buttons were unreadable. See
the bug number mentioned in the linked commit.
Fixing this required a rewrite, and it made sense to accept the QML
rewrite in the current form. And if you would follow the discussion in
the review request, you would notice that it wasn't "just" accepted.
