True, The "System/log out" menu entry is not a really good description 
of the dialog. Could someone provide me a screenshot of the new upstream 
logout dialog?

But dear people, please keep in mind the following:

1) Apart from the minor or extra issues like left-align/center, "Pause" 
or "Pause session", one or two dialogs, all I heard is positive response 
to http://www.manucornet.net/GNOME/logout.png (titles and re-ordering) 
in favor of the current Dapper logout dialog, that is criticized to be 
confusing/crowded.
2) The InferfaceFreeze, as far as I know, already happened a few days ago.
3) This thread has forked on ubuntu-desktop: 
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-desktop/2006-March/000464.html
4) Per 2), we are actually quite late discussing this; I think it'd be 
good if the people who decide over the gnome-logout-dialog (Sebastian 
Bacher? Manu Cornet? no clue) could decide today if 
http://www.manucornet.net/GNOME/logout.png is favored over the current 
dialog, check all constraints we're in (doc-teams, books that will be 
published, etc.) with the releasemanager, and make a decision. If this 
means it won't make Dapper: Too bad, we can reconsider in a few months.

Thanks for your attention,

Eric
