Comment (by pierre.labastie):

 As far as I can see, only xfce4 is able to use consolekit2. That makes
 sense since the person maintaining consolekit2 is one of the xfce
 developpers. Well, what doesn't make sense is that none of the other
 desktops seems to be able to use consolekit2... On the other hand, The
 only missing bits are the capability to hibernate or suspend. Is this a
 problem?
 Maybe when using a laptop on batteries, it'd be nice to suspend the
 session when the battery is low.

 If you only need to be able to put the system in suspend or hibernate
 mode, you can always run manually (for example for hibernation):
 {{{
 dbus-send --system                                     \
           --print-reply                                \
           --dest=org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit            \
           /org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager          \
           org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Hibernate \
           boolean:true
 }}}
 Of course, this could be an alias... That works with any DE in the book.
