The problem is not about canceling the logout, from the bug's description:

"My laptop started suspending while it was shutting down KDE. After opening 
the laptop, it continued with the shutdown procedure, and fired signals to 
init."

That's what I aimed to solve. About notifying all application, the only thing 
I know about is QApplication::saveStateRequest() signal, though my main 
concern is that, being PowerDevil a kded module and the signal not in 
QCoreApplication, this could not work for non-graphical application, but I 
might be wrong, that's why I asked for some more pointers.

In any case, if putting such a signal can be an issue, I already have a patch 
that triggers an inhibition from ksmserver. This could be even cleaner and a 
preferrable way, so in any case I think I'm going to revert the commit. 
Though, if anyone wants to review this, I can post the patch on the list.
