half-ass support for some no user cases. Either make the general no
user case part of the design or punt it completely and make room for a
transition from a no user daemon to the per-user g-p-m. Half-assing it
and only providing for "typical" no user situations is a mockery. You
might be able to claim "typical" desktop situations now..but no user
situations are going to be vastly more variable. Tying this into gdm
specifically..would be an example of a half-ass approach.


My laptop boots to command line.  I go into and out of X (using
"startx" depending on whether I need an agile machine with minimum
software running or a pretty desktop.

It is essential that power management run regardless of whether I
am in the desktop or not.  Therefore I will use a non-Gnome solution
for power control

Therefore it is essential that I be able to easily prevent the
Gnome power management from interferring with my preferred power
management, and that this be supported by the configureation
of the Gnome power manager and that this be documented as part
of the Fedora install procedure.


I should have added that lack of this feature would be a "show-stopper"
for me for FC5 and would require that I move to another distribution.
