Nope. I added
myuser localhost=/sbin/shutdown using visudo. I logged out, logged back in and still no options. Sudo is installed.
I left the %users localhost=/sbin/shutdown -h now commented as I don't want all users to be able to do this. What am I missing?

Thanks.

Having just gone through this, I know how to get it done.
You need to install sudo, and your user needs to be configured in the /etc/sudoers file. man sudoers will give you the info for this.
In the /etc/sudoers file, there are options for shutdown that are commented by default. Uncomment them and you will have access to the shutdown/reboot options from withing XFCE4.
