IDP Logout, text asking user whether or not to kill the IDP session

Hi,

We're being presented with situations where it makes sense to have the 
user click a Logout button on the App, and be returned to the IDP Logout 
endpoint.

IDP 2.4 includes support for that endpoint (and just destroys the 
session cookie). However, in our case, if the user is returned to that 
IDP endpoint we'd prefer to display a page asking the user if they want 
the IDP session destroyed; if they click YES then proceed. In most cases 
we expect they won't want to kill the IDP session.

The problem is "how to ask that question". Most of the terms that 
denizens of this list use as part of that question aren't suitable for 
use when asking that question of a non-computer person.

I'm wondering if other sites that have faced this situation are willing 
to share the text they've used to present this question ?

Thanks in advance!
