Please have a look at the apmd_proxy script in the apm package. I'm currently using something like this in my /etc/power/pwctl-local (most of this was borrowed from something Michel posted a while ago IIRC). e.g:
case "$2" in
battery)
if [ -x /etc/apm/apmd_proxy ]; then
/etc/apm/apmd_proxy change power
else
run-parts --arg=change --arg=power /etc/apm/event.d
if [ -d /etc/apm/other.d ]; then
run-parts --arg=change --arg=power /etc/apm/other.d
fi
fi
....
ac)
if [ -x /etc/apm/apmd_proxy ]; then
/etc/apm/apmd_proxy change power
else
run-parts --arg=change --arg=power /etc/apm/event.d
if [ -d /etc/apm/other.d ]; then
run-parts --arg=change --arg=power /etc/apm/other.d
fi
fi
esac
...
case "$1" in
sleep)
# invoke apm scripts
echo "Invoking apm scripts"
if [ -x /etc/apm/apmd_proxy ]; then
/etc/apm/apmd_proxy suspend user
else
run-parts --arg=suspend --arg=user /etc/apm/event.d
if [ -d /etc/apm/suspend.d ]; then
run-parts --arg=suspend --arg=user /etc/apm/suspend.d

... (something similar for wakeup. I'm still using pbbuttonsd+pmud since
I never figured out if pbuttonsd can also do things like this already).
Debian packages put their scripts under /etc/apm at the moment. Not the
best choice, /etc/power would be better, a move over would need
coordination of the apmd and acpid maintainers I guess.
A mechanism of a generic script (that basically does the above) + the
ability to add local changes (like pmud's pwrctl-local, maybe with
compatible calling conventions) would be everything that's needed IMHO).
