The GNOME desktop provides gnome-power-manager which implements the interface.

So implement o.fd.pm in KDE core (what ever it's called) and then don't worry. Splitting up Hibernate and Reboot mean the Inhibit interaction gets *waaaayyy* complicated for a really common use case. Basically, in my opinion there's much more to gain putting the methods on one interface (even if we have to just proxy two of them) than the pain of splitting them up.
