I want to get those dialogs, too.  Or at least have the option of getting
them.  Every time I log out, I wonder, did I forget to save something?  The
only safe way to log out is to go down the dock, quit everything that's
active, THEN log out.  This is too much hassle, so I don't do it.

So sometimes, I lose changes.  Bad.  The fact that the "M computer" does
it right ought to be embarassing for you "N people", too.
