5320	Add a logout hook	Boris Bobrov		"It could be useful to have a hook in the ''logout'' view for authentication plugins.

For example, I've made a plugin to use HTTP Authentication but the logout need to be done externally. I've made the attached patch which allows to redirect to any other internal/external page, but it can be discussed and ameliorated...

Thanks in advance!
