Do you know if there’s a WordPress action that is called when you log the user out through the WordPress admin? The [WP Discourse](https://github.com/discourse/wp-discourse) plugin hooks into the `clear_auth_cookie` action to sync user initiated logouts between WordPress and Discourse. Maybe there’s another action that could be used for this that would also work when the user is logged out by a site admin.
