Interesting. I have some medium-aged Sony VPCM11M1E which too has a
power button (more like a *slider*) that could be said to be prone to
activation; however, the machine will not react to the slider or keypress
while the lid is closed, which is a good thing.
Am I correct in the assumption that your Yoga machines are not
as "smart" and thus desired this change? :)

Does logind handle the case of {textconsole environment with
external display and usbkbd}?
