Picking up meteor.js user logout

Question

Is there any way to pick up when a user logs out of the website? I need to do some clean up when they do so. Using the built-in meteor.js user accounts.

None of the solutions worked for me, since they all suffered from the problem of not being able to distinguish between manual logout by the user vs. browser page reload/close.

I'm now going with a hack, but at least it works (as long as you don't provide any other means of logging out than the default accounts-ui buttons):

Template._loginButtons.events({
    'click #login-buttons-logout': function(ev) {
        console.log("manual log out");
        // do stuff
    }
});
