Mantas, I think you are right that openbox can call oblogout, but my existing 
oblogout is trying to call shutdown, halt, hibernate  etc etc and aren't those 
the things that HandlePowerKey is supposed to protect? I suppose there are dbus 
messages that can be used with consolekit, but that's just the more capable 
daemon again. Currently my oblogout is doing nasty things like sudo shutdown ie 
it gives itself super powers in a rather brutal way.
