Bug#384115: gnome-session: Logout/Shutdown/Reboot via command line

Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.14.3-1
Severity: wishlist

It would be nice to have some

gnome-session-remote --logout
gnome-session-remote --shutdown
gnome-session-remote --reboot
gnome-session-remote --logout-default-action
gnome-session-remote --logout-default-action --confirm

commands, that trigger these actions.
(--logout should Logout the user, despite his default action being set
to shutdown, for example; the --logout-default-action should follow the
/apps/gnome-session/options/logout_option setting.

The --confirm option should present the user a confirmation dialog; it
makes probably sense to have a --force-confirm action, too, which
overrides the /apps/gnome-session/options/logout_prompt gconf key.
