  - logout: quit herbstluftwm.
  - switch users: call gdmflexiserver (its provided by gdm, for light-dm
    it is: /usr/bin/dm-tool switch-to-greeter).
  - lock/screensaver: you can call gnome's screensaver (I don't know how
    to start it from the command line) or use the desktop-independent
    tools like i3lock, xscreensaver, ...

Best,
Thorsten
