Probably, there is some way to click a logout for changing users, reloading profile, etc. and reboot/shutdown is just so simple in KDE, even providing for reboot automatically to a different grub menu entry. C-A-Bckspace gave me a quick and dirty logout,in but this left ksnapshot and knotify in a panic, grabbing 100% cpu (as in KDE) and I had to SIG 9 them. There's got to be a better way. Another weirdness I experienced, logging back into KDE, the cairo-dock and avant panel were right there at the bottom, along with the KDE panel. I found they were new items in the KDE autostart list, which was simple to disable, but not what I expected.
I did get ksnapshot working through rc.xml Thanks for the learned guru solutions. Openbox can be very spartan or can feature some really cool animated graphics that appeal to me. With time, it could be possible to get the functionality I've grown to want in KDE, even all the sound notifications for different actions that, along with animations, make me feel like my IT dollars have been well-spent.
For now, I need to wait for another chunk of free time, take a little rest.
