Am i right that the patch would have to be something like this:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=546989 (for nautilus but
just for the idea)

Also if it's that then what's the use of that file:
"/usr/share/gnome/shutdown/libcanberra-logout-sound.sh" because
canberra is going to play the "desktop-logout" sound (defined here:
http://0pointer.de/public/sound-naming-spec.html)... or is that done
as a separate file so it will finish it and not break the sound after
a few microseconds?

If you tell me how i can execute a file inside c code (in a way that
gnome accepts it) then i will do my best to make a patch.

And just to be sure.. if i make a patch with logout sound support i
need to edit the gsm_logout_supports_* function in the
gsm_logout_dialog.c file right and assign there appropriate sound name
in each function (logout gets a logout sound, shutdown gets a shutdown
sound etc...)

Thanx,
