That's not necessary, look at the ZMI, there is a logout option in the
dropdown box. I never digged into "zmi_logout" (IIRC it has that name)
but I think it is not accessible by _any_ Zope-User even not the
Emergency User, so regardless of what you type in the Login-dialog you
get logged out. The only problem I find is that you get presented a
login dialog which always fails to login and this is a bit "weird" as
"logout-action".
