Not really. With HAL running, it should push the ACPI key events through
D-Bus. There's no need for a system-config-acpid or even using acpid.

With the right keymap, all those events already trickle to X, so there
shouldn't ever be a need for acpid or a system-config-acpid, as there's
already enough hot-key handlers in X (such as the ones builtin to GNOME
and KDE).

Do we still install acpid by default?
