Does it still do that?

Generally this is not true. An application can care about it, but if it
doesn't grab the DBus interface, it won't matter, or am i wrong?
So explaining somewhere what exactly (in technical terms) an application has
to do to count it as "caring about power management" would be good.
Thanks :-)
