Indeed, never noticed that before.  Probably because the default Gnome 
shortcut key is Ctl-Alt-Del, which most people associate with shutdown 
rather than log-out.  However, it was named the "Log Out" shortcut, 
probably back in the day when the Shutdown and Log-out dialogue were 
combined, and now that has become a little counter-intuative (and leaves 
us with no method of creating a log out shortcut)

I would say file a bug, but considering the changes soon being made to 
gnome, I'm not sure anyone would jump on this at this point.
