AFAICT currently it's not so easy to mistakenly open the logout dialog, is it?

Again, I don't see how the logout dialog would pop up when the user is writing,
playing, browsing, etc. I mean that dialog only appears when the user means it.
And when using the keyboard (alt+f4 when no window is focused), with the
proposed patch, the user will need to move away from the "safe" option.

Depending on the configuration, Xfce4-power-manager may send a notification
asking the user what to do when the battery level is critical.
