The real problem is that you have to go poking about in text files to
configure what should be a "simple" thing - what to do when the lid is
closed.

*I* know how to make the changes (I prefer the screen to blank/lock on
lid close and *not* suspend the laptop, since suspend-to-RAM is often
unreliable).  That leaves me having to muck about in text files to "fix"
my wife's computer so it suspends to disk when the lid is closed, etc.
