Logout from the client side would be possible only if an RP or IdP supported some protocol for logout that could then be used by the client (whether it be the web browser, Cardspace or something else). Typical approaches to logout in the web-browser world involve simply providing a link on a web page that allows the user to press the link to logout. Of course, logging out at one RP doesn't mean you're logged out with the IdP or all the other RPs you might be logged in with. SAML 2 has a "single logout" protocol, but I don't believe that OpenID currently specifies something like that.
