Turns out that this window is actually part of the unity code proper, which makes it more difficult to 
improve accessibility wise than I thought.

Luckily, it appears that the GTK based messages that used to be displayed are still in the code, but if Unity 
is running, Unity does the window instead. It will be much easier to put in a switch to disable the unity 
logout/restart windows and use the GTK one than it will be to try and fix things in Unity, given Unity will 
be rewritten in Qt/QML anyway...
