You can solve one of the problems *fairly* easily. The JS confirmation that pops up asking if you want to allow the window to be closed is not displayed if the window was opened with JS in the first place. If after login you open a new window with some JS (and redirect the origional window to a thanks for coming type page) then when they log out the new window can be closed with JS with no prompts and no danger of the back button being used leaving the original window now displaying its thanks for being here message. You will also need to use a pragma:no-cache type header element so that they can't be smart and look it up in the web browsers cache files.
