So I need to end a bunch of people login sessions at once on a quarterly basis. I notice that admin/users.rb log\_out uses `MessageBus.publish "/logout", @user.id, user_ids: [@user.id]`. Can I use that inside a plugin to mass logout users? I have ‘log out strict’ set so it should hit all the sessions.
