Well, you can still use acpid scripts if you like :-) In the g-p-m m/l
we are talking about ways to solve the "no X" situation, maybe involving
a "headless" (i.e. no gui) version of gnome-power-manager starting at
the login screen, or maybe just having a fallback in hal if there is no
g-p-m.

All of this should "just work" [1] using a recent HAL, pm-utils and
g-p-m.
