Description Max Mustermann 2013-10-19 18:58:58 UTC 
How to reproduce: 
1. Do some work in GIMP.
2. In the global menubar choose to Log off, Suspend, Shutdown or Reboot.

Expected result:
GIMP quits as if the user has chosen to quit the application in the GIMP menu and the OSX user session continues to exit.

Actual result:
GIMP does nothing at all. Neither the GIMP window is brought to front nor it asks the user to save dirty documents nor it quits.
At the end it interrupts the desired exit-session action silently. To a user it is frustrating to return to the computer after hours and the computer is still on, showing a message 'GIMP interrupted the shutdown process.'

It happened at least in GIMP 2.8.4, but I also faced it in later GIMP on OSX builds.

Does this still happen for the current 2.8.124 builds from download.gimp.org?
Comment 2 Michael Schumacher 2015-06-06 09:44:22 UTC 
*2.8.14
Comment 3 Michael Schumacher 2015-12-30 09:43:09 UTC 
... or 2.8.16 now.
Comment 4 Max Mustermann 2016-04-16 21:41:54 UTC 
Just tried with GIMP 2.8.16 (kris' build) and other software on OS X 10.9.5. On restart, shut down or logoff OS X gives the user a 1 minute countdown to save files and exit open applications. After that minute or if the user clicks the appropriate button (Logoff, Restart, Shut down) OS X sends a signal to quit the application.
GIMP now shows a windows to save the work as expected. It behaves like every other OS X application here. Closing the bug as OBSOLETE now.
