Hi,

(note bug 7228 as well)

The settings UI has a checkbox labelled "prompt on logout" which as far as I understand and the tooltip for this checkbox states, displays the logout dialog when the user decides to log out.

I suggest the clarity of what this setting does and when it is relevant/made use of could be improved.

You just want the label changed? What would you like it changed to? Or is there more we could be doing?

Eric,

I'm still not 100% sure that this triggers showing the xfce4-session-logout dialog as opposed to immediately shutting down the session when the user "logs out", and in what cases (i.e. what user interactions) this behaviour applies.

I was hoping someone would comment and clarify before I can propose something more explicit. :-)
