Comment (by adehnert):
I also argue in #36576 that `admin:logout` *should* work for logging out
non-admin users, but I contend that using `admin:logout` *here* is wrong
independent of that. If nothing else, it appears that
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.2/topics/auth/default/#django.contrib.auth.logout
`auth.logout`] and
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/5.2/ref/contrib/admin/#django.contrib.admin.AdminSite.logout_template
the admin variant] can use different templates, and presumably most people
following these directions to add a logout link are doing it outside the
admin context -- the admin has a logout link provided. That said, it's
obviously much worse because of #36576 (I only noticed the discrepancy
when I finally went to log out a user without admin access, and that
wouldn't have been relevant without #36576).
