Lightdm doesn't actually have a gui but the Xfce spin includes
the
lightdm gtk greeter. It is worth pointing that out as you can install
different greeters, they are separate packages. If you are using the
default gtk launcher you can remove the power menu but as I understand
it you can't change it as it just shows the power options that are
configured in polkit.

It looks like I will be able to "add" an item with
"lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings" run as root
