I don't know exactly what you mean, but I think KSM is supposed to be 
XSMP compatible, so you should not need anything KDE-specific for basic 
session management.

systemsettings in KDE 4.

Don't know.

I think this should do the trick
$ qdbus org.kde.ksmserver /KSMServer \
	org.kde.KSMServerInterface.logout 1 -1 -1

Don't know, maybe the same method with some other parameters.
