Hello,

Maybe this can be of some use to you, regarding the shutdown and so on
with ConsoleKit : in PCLinuxOS Openbox and PCLinuxOS Education I used Lxpanel 
along with pygtk-shutdown (successor of shutdown-dialog.py) with
ConsoleKit and Upower patches. I didn't use the pm-utils patch up to now, be
we could have. 

I have done this setup because I wanted only Lxpanel and no lxsession
installed, so I replaced the lxde-logout command with pygtk-shutdown command.

You can see the script and patches here:
https://github.com/doorknob60/pygtk-shutdown

As you can see when you display the patches, they use dbus commands. 

We have now been using them for several months without any trouble, and the
same are used in the ready to use Openbox menu.xml.

Regards,
Mélodie
