That's re-implementing the wheel.
Why not just use what's there and either fix or replace the broken bits.

Could we create a simple application that displays a logout modal

shouldn't be that difficult to create it? We would only need to setup
sudo to run the littel GTK2 app.
What do you think?

I can't shutdown Devuan from xfce, the button is just disabled...
Am I missing something?
I've intermittently had this problem on multiple versions of multiple
distros. I think of it as being part of the plan --- just the way life
is.
If you're really concerned about it, you could put in a (complicated)
hotkey combo to run a shellscript that runs poweroff, and make sure that
poweroff is set in sudoers to run as root and require no password
(assuming this is a personal computer, and not a multiuser).
By the way, if you happen to be booting to the command prompt and then
running startx, Xfce is functioning as designed when it grays out its
shutdown and reboot buttons.
