Hi,

You need to write your own polkit rules, for shutdown, reboot, suspend and so on.

See pkg info -D xfce4-session

Stop to launch your session with option --with-ck-launch (usually it's wrong) x11-wm/xfce4-session provides xinitrc script, uses it!

For more details, see this thread on the forum [1] and my Xfce's FAQ [2].
