Yeah we have something that make container authed users go to a
different logout page to Sakai authenticated users. Does that sound
similar? or are you thinking about a different logout URL based on the
type of the user?

There's a patch for 2.5.x at:

http://git-repo.oucs.ox.ac.uk/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=repos/local-version/sakai/login.git;a=commit;h=cd6b87e8dc6cfc7abb7857e94949d0ebafa71b2b

and an updated patch later in the branch I think (we have pulled in
the skinnable login code).
