Seem that the org.freedesktop.login1 APIs are provided by systemd. Since we need to work on non-systemd distros too,at the very least we'll have to keep code to fallback to using pm-utils on those distros. The org.freedesktop.UPower APIs seem to be provided by the UPower project, which was a fork of DeviceKit-Power, which in turn was replacing HAL. Is there any benefit to using org.freedesktop.login1 for PM checks, over using org.freedesktop.UPower, or vica-verca ? Or do we need to support both dbus servics, and pm-utils.
