Also gnome-shell directly integrates with power-profiles-daemon. It is
critical that both gnome-shell and gnome-control-center has no logic of
their own to decide what a high level profile is, and changing the
profile in gnome-control-center should immediately be reflected in
gnome-shell, and vice versa. This is important because tweaking the
profile with either gnome-control-center and gnome-shell should for all
practical purposes do the exact same thing, meaning any actual logic
must be a layer below them.

This means something, e.g. tuned or a wrapper around it, needs to
provide these high level profiles that power-profiles-daemon currently
expose.

Any long term future API must still provide the high level "dumb" API
for gnome-shell and gnome-control-center to consume for the reasons
described above.
