            Bug ID: 448942
           Summary: Powerdevil does not call logind SetIdleHint on user
                    idle
           Product: Powerdevil
           Version: 5.23.90
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: nierr...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Currently, when user is idle, logind SetIdleHint method is not called.  
This is needed to communicate to any external utility that the desktop is in
idle mode (eg: screen is dimmed).  

In this particular case, the feature is useful for my own
[Clight](https://github.com/FedeDP/Clight) project (an utility to manage
automatic brightness either using Ambient Light Sensors or webcams)  to
properly run using KDE dimmer (without using the dimmer provided by Clight
itself), because it listens on IdleHint changes to understand when the
automatic backlight calibration should be paused.

Is this feasible?
Thanks!
Federico
