What you want is to use GnomeClient (the session manager client).  In
your handler for the "save-yourself" signal, call
gnome_client_request_interaction().  That function later needs to call
gnome_interaction_key_return() to indicate whether it wants to cancel
the logout process.

Gedit has a good example of how to use this; look in gedit-session.c.
