odd that logout works and shutdown doesn't. thge difference basically is that
logout runs around deleting all app windows e knows about (the nice way as if
you pressed the X button) allowing apps to exit cleanly on their own. if app
windows are still up after N seconds (20 i think), then e complains. it could
be complaining while screen is black - i fixed that a short while back (a few
months ago - or i think i did).

the only thing i can imagine is that there is some regular app window that
entrance has up that e has found and that entrance is not closing when
requested... ?

btw - after closing all the windows e uses the e_sys shutdown call - this
either runs the enlightenment_sys setuid root binary that is told to shut down
(this in turn runs whatever the shutdown action is in sysactions.conf), OR if
you have systemd, it sends a systemd dbus message asking systemd to shut down.
