1. Well, if it's true it should be very easy to change: just 
s[etc/pm/][usr/lib/pm-utils/] in the debdiff.
2. Unfortunately, I have no clue if Debian currently uses acpi-support/pm-utils 
or anything else. At the very least they don't have hacks in /etc/acpi/power.sh 
like Ubuntu has, so they must be doing something differently.
3. At first I was thinking about changing pm-utils, but then I realized that 
pm-utils shouldn't control laptop-mode-tools either. So I decided that the 
correct place for hooks is laptop-mode-tools itself.
4. As far as I reviewed laptop_mode script it should. It should actually do it 
without arguments as well, but I thought it is better to pass auto anyway. It's 
just important not to pass start/stop, comment "Old options. We always do 
"auto" for any option now" is misleading: check for start/stop is done after 
auto-detection.
Additionally, compared to Debian, Ubuntu's laptop_mode has state check
commented out, which means we don't have problems like "previous state
is incorrect after hibernate/thaw and settings are not reapplied". Just
calling laptop_mode auto at the right moments seems to be sufficient in
Ubuntu (as long as /etc/init.d/laptop-mode is in runlevels).
