not sure about the group, though. power and shutdown ar no default groups  
in debian.
and there's
/usr/share/doc/xfce4-session/README.Debian
(there should be some hint upon installation, that there is additional  
information available)
which proposes powerdev as group (although it is neither created nor  
hinted to).
