Sure agree. Good email. One question: Switches (killswitch, lid, tablet, headphone) are not exposed in Xorg, and not exposed in DeviceKit either. At the moment the only thing gnome-power-manager uses HAL for in git master is the find out the lid status. I really want to remove the HAL dep completely. Is it insane to add a property lid-is-closed to DeviceKit-power? I can't think of a better place for the lid status information, and don't really want to add low level /dev/input type stuff to g-p-m. If I'm adding lid-is-closed, would SW_TABLET_MODE, SW_HEADPHONE_INSERT and SW_RADIO also needed to be handled? I can't help thinking this is feature bloat, and should probably be exposed in Xorg or something. Ideas welcome.
