kpowersave does have a interface already though look at it's public interface:

QCStringList interfaces()
QCStringList functions()
bool lockScreen()
bool do_setScheme(TQString)
bool do_setCPUFreqPolicy(TQString)
bool do_suspendToDisk()
bool do_suspendToRAM()
bool do_standBy()
bool do_brightnessDown(int percentageStep)
bool do_brightnessUp(int percentageStep)
void disableAutosuspend(bool)
void showDetailedDialog()
bool openConfigureDialog()
bool currentSchemeManagesDPMS()
int brightnessGet()
TQString currentScheme()
TQString currentCPUFreqPolicy()
TQStringList allowed_sleepingStates()
TQStringList listSchemes()
TQStringList listCPUFreqPolicies()

basically we need all of that, in a daemon.

Right?
