Description (last modified by )
Some desktops (gnome and others) offer the option to shutdown/reboot.
I also have the case where openbox will log me out of my real desktop when I logout of the virtual one! WTF!
In a virtual desktop environment this is most certainly NOT wanted.
We need a way to tell the window manager to just offer logout and nothing else.
Something a bit like these gconf keys maybe?

Looks like the right place for these policy decisions is PolicyKit, unfortunately it does not look like we can set this easily at runtime for individual sessions...
The same user may have a full X session (ie: on display :0) and many other virtual desktops on the same box. Although he may want to shutdown/reboot from the main X session, offering the same options from the virtual desktops is not a good option. This will need some work.
