A few other places need this...
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.WakeOnLan.InvalidArgument is raised at the
end of the script; hal-dockstation-undock-linux raises
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.DockStation.NotDocked without a description;
hal-system-killswitch-set-power-linux raises
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.KillSwitch.NotSupported;
hal-system-lcd-get-brightness-linux raises
org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.LaptopPanel.NotSupported... at this point I
quit looking. :)

Maybe it would be better to make hal not require each exception to have
a description? Or at least add a test to ensure that all exceptions
raised by scripts come with a description... this seems harder though
since you'd have to parse the shell scripts (assuming all scripts are
shell scripts which I guess is not necessarily guaranteed)...
