I miss an option to disable kdm/ksmserver's warning and interrupt of my logout in case there are users logged in on the VTs or through SSH.
It happened sometimes to me now, that I returned to an empty battery because I choose 'Shutdown', closed the lid and threw the laptop into my bag.
Or when I've been logged in on a clients machine through SSH, where I kept some 'tail -f /var/log/messages' forgotten in a screen, it wouldn't power off properly, since the user would just "Alt+F2 -> shutdown" and leave the room. 
It'd be nice to have an option, to either disable this check completly or to have it limited to graphical sessions only.

Reproducible: Always
