If you are using and external Idm system to manage and authenticate users (such as keycloak) - it would nice to be able to have a button in the editor to allow the user to logout. There does seem to be a logout option if you use the built in adminAuth - but that doesn't seem to get enabled if you use and external provider. Is there a way to allow it to be enabled in either case - (I think) all it needs to do is to render the button that lets me point to an external logout link.

Thanks
