For sure,
i'm using HAL to shutdown but you need also sudo ;)
You have to put something like this in /etc/sudoers

%users ALL = NOPASSWD: /path/to/xfce/libexec/xfsm-shutdown-helper

I don't remember the exact line, but it should be closer to that...
Good luck.

Please take care of HAL mount/umount/eject scripts, this would mean  
removing pmount dependency for several distros, even for my LFS.

Bye.
