Just a small suggestion : what about * keeping an internal countdown (eg 2 minutes), without showing it in the dialog ; * when the time is out, either run a password-locked screensaver, ordo what is necessary so that clicking on "Cancel" (or anything that will imply staying inside the session) will need the password of the currently logged user. Clicking on "Log Out", "Shut Down", etc., will not. That way : 1) if the user forgets to confirm his logout, his session can't be stole by someone else (except within these 2 minutes) and 2) the user won't be "fightened" by any shown countdown.
