I had a silly idea about that, I'm not sure people will like it :)
I was wondering why this option should be in galeon. Wouldn't an applet
which can be used to exit a session-aware app be better ? That way, all
session-aware apps would get an exit with session for free. Otoh, it
might be a little weird to have to use an applet to use an "exit with
session" feature. That might fit well in the window manager, but havoc
probably won't want that in metacity, which sounds perfectly reasonable
to me :)
These are only my 2 cents, feel free to flame about this incredibly
stupid idea :p
