Package file /usr/share/acpi-support/screenblank called from /etc/acpi/lid.sh 
when lid is closed makes a direct call to DCOP forcing screen blanking and 
locking:

line 13: dcop --session "$session" --all-users kdesktop KScreensaverIface lock

Since lid use to be a laptop feature, and laptops use to be used (mainly) by just one person, it is desirable that user can configurate that behavior. Actually, even if all logged-in system users have their KDEs configured to do nothing when lid is closed, sessions are locked, when it is not desired behaviour.

e.g. I use to close lid a moment just to write something on a paper piece, and 
I must rewrite my password on screen locker afterwards.

Solution suggestion: change the unconditional call to DCOP to something 
user-configurable

Hi Noel,

Thanks for the report. Are you running klaptopdaemon? If that daemon is running, the CheckPolicy call in lid.sh should terminate the script, and leave the work to klaptopdaemon.

Cheers,
Bart
