Bug#354002: missing "reboot" and "poweroff" options in logout dialog if kdm is used as login manager

Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.12.0-4
Severity: normal

When kdm is used as login manager I get a logoff, reboot and poweroff
option when logging out from KDE, when logging out from GNOME I only get
logoff.
The other way around seems to work. Using gdm as login manager, I get
all three options when logging out from GNOME or KDE.
It would be nice if the logout dialog of GNOME would also offer reboot
and poweroff when kdm is in use.
(suspend and hibernate would be nice too, btw)

Regards,
Michael
