Agreed. I've been working hard on getting kernel drivers to push up key
presses up through INPUT, rather than using ACPI or other insane files
to report this to userspace.

acpid has no role in a modern desktop; you shouldn't need to configure
anything - it should just work. I really don't see the need for such a
tool.
