Yes, but I don't know a single laptop this works correctly for. You
could argue the same about Standby, Hibernate and Shutdown. Maybe
another method TimedSleep or something?

2. You are calling one section "compulsory basic interface". So in case
   you don't have a real power management application such as g-p-m or
   kpowersave on the desktop, but of course still need the shutdown and
   reboot interfaces, someone else (the desktop base) has to implement all
   of the others too? That seems unfeasible to me. Or am I getting
   something wrong here?

Hmm. I figured they could all be just stubs that return NoHardware or
PermissionDeniedByPolicy or something like that. Maybe an error of
NotImplemented should be added to the spec. A stub in python is only a
few lines of code, and then we stop lazy XFCE (joke!) people from not
implimenting the whole base spec.
