Public bug reported:

Beyond being useful on servers, PowerNap is also independently useful on
Desktops/Laptops too. Power savings on a Laptop means longer battery
life.

However, PowerNap and gnome-power-manager, though, don't know about one
another. Both use pm-utils (pm-powersave, specifically) to up and down
power utilization.

We can fix this in PowerNap if we used shared memory (just a flag in
/var/run/powernap/powersave) which powernapd could/should query, and
set.
