The problem is that the /var/run/console stuff is redhat specfic (I haven't looked at it, but based on the begin of this thread, it is pam.d/reboot). Once you know what redhat did, this certainly is easy, I am just trying to bring us back to the point that the bug report referenced is a distribution agnostic way for gnome-session to handle the shutdown options. Of course, the distribution still has to come up with the method of authenticating the user.
