Yes, this is a good point. This particular way of organizing the menus
makes this issues more clear, but really we should have changed this a
long time ago when the current user's name was added to the header.
That seems to make the most sense as a place to put the logout link.
If there is no user logged in we could also change that to say "Not
Logged In" with a "Login" link next to it.

Yes, these are a bit crowded, so +1 on that too (and I agree it
belongs in the framework as all of the infrastructure for these things
is in the framework).
