+&lt;p&gt;6 years ago, as part of the Debian Edu development I am involved
+in, I asked for a hook in the kdm and gdm setup to run scripts as root
+when the user log out.  A bug was submitted against the xfree86-common
+package in 2004 (&lt;a href=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/230422&quot;&gt;#230422&lt;/a&gt;),
+and revisited every time Debian Edu was working on a new release.
+Today, this finally paid off.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The framework for this feature was today commited to the git
+repositry for the xorg package, and the git repository for xdm has
+been updated to use this framework.  Next on my agenda is to make sure
+kdm and gdm also add code to use this framework.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;In Debian Edu, we want to ability to run commands as root when the
+user log out, to get rid of runaway processes and do general cleanup
+after a user.  With this framework in place, we finally can do that in
+a generic way that work with all display managers using this
+framework.  My goal is to get all display managers in Debian use it,
+similar to how they use the Xsession.d framework today.&lt;p&gt;
