We had introduced this in 2007, IIRC, together with very minor local
CGI scripting (which for example sidesteps the question and
immediately kills your IdP session when you're accessing the page from
within specified IP ranges), but have not advocated to use our
proprietary logout URL at the IdP in recent years. Anyway, here goes
with a rough translation:
If you want to exit your weblogin (N.B.: name of the service)
session please click/choose
[[Logout]]
<bold>and completely exit your web browser</bold>, e.g. via File ->
Quit.
Alternatively you can still continue your weblogin session by
accessing services directly.
