--- Comment #2 from Bastien Nocera <bugzilla at hadess.net> ---
logind doesn't actually expose the lid status directly to third-party
applications, and UPower only exposes lid status because it itself needed it to
make power related decisions.

Seeing as UPower doesn't use the lid status internally anymore, there's a good
chance it will get removed from UPower, and a better place would be somewhere
in the session.

Which is where we could put the tablet mode status as well.

Reassigning to libinput to keep track, and expose SW_LID and SW_TABLET_MODE
values to compositors. I'll file a bug against gnome-shell as well.
