Imho this can not really be fixed within kpowersave but must be lower
down the stack. ConsoleKit [1] was specifially designed for such a
scenario and will probably be supported by hal-0.5.9.
Maybe kpowersave could be changed to also use ConsoleKit.
I'm CCing the upstream author, Danny Kukawka, to get his opinion on this
matter.

Cheers,
