This is not the first time I see such a request, and it would make the
life easier for our KDE / Xfce / <insert your prefered WM / env
here...>

Moreover, this would also:
- federate the various FLOSS PM effort, and gather more resource to
work on this,
- solve the UPS support problem for Integrated Power Management on
servers (so console only).
Well I don't see the need for console support apart from the above, or
possibly resurrecting an old laptop as a "headless" server...

Maybe logging a feature request in the tracker would help.
