The display manager 'wdm' can be configured to allow users to shutdown,
reboot and exit the graphical environment.

If you want to get to text mode you can do so without closing down your
display manager by pressing CTRL+MOD1+F* where F is 1-6 by default.
CTRL+MOD1+F7 to return to the graphical display.
