Looks purty. :)

I realize this is a mockup, but how will this look for those starting X/TDE from the command line? Like current operations, will the Sleep/Hibernate/Shutdown/Restart/Switch User options be unavailable for those types of sessions?

I'll volunteer to play devil's advocate:

* Will users know to look in the Logout submenu to lock the session? (Locking a session is not logging out.)
* Why is switching to another user considered a logout function? Why not keep that option in the top level of the menu?
* What is the difference between Save session and Logout?
* Could the top level "Logout..." option be renamed to "Logout/Session Options..."?
