Make logging out a one-step process

Title:
Make logging out a one-step process

Area:
site interface

Summary:
Logging out via the main navigation menu has required a second click for a while (I believe it didn't used to). Logging out via the Navigation Strip doesn't. I suggest making the former like the latter unless you have several open sessions.

I was just thinking about this today. So, resounding Yes! to this.

Yes, yes, yes, a thousand times yes! When I enabled the navbar on my test and personal journals a week or so ago it hit me that it takes only one click to log out with it but two to log out the old-fashioned way. Which is often three clicks in reality (clicking from my Reading page to say, my Profile page, and from my Profile Page to the log out Confirm page). Which, on my hideous home wifi (it's as slow or slower than dial-up) is killing me time and patience-wise. Plus, in all honesty, if there's a Confrim log-out page for every other scenario, then why isn't there one for the Navbar, too? Being a little OCD, the double-confirm in all scenarios but just that one confuses me, on top of everything else.
