GNOME Power Manager can control CPU speed with policy set in the session, usually saving power more aggressively than cpuspeed. It also has the benefit of using a HAL addon rather than a system service, which is only loaded if the machine is frequency scale supported. So really, I think the system daemon can be stopped by default, and leave it there if some admin wants to install it on a big server.
