+power consumption (such as LCD brightness level, monitor sleep, CPU frequency
+scaling, etc).  In addition, xfce4-power-manager provides a set of
+freedesktop-compliant DBus interfaces to inform other applications about current
+power level so that they can adjust their power consumption, and it provides the
+inhibit interface which allows applications to prevent automatic sleep.")
