Unless you're a macbook, with the white thermoplastic cover. Gloopy mess :)

I don't think the desktop guys want any kind of authentication when
the lid is closed. How feasible would it be to do the suspend when the
inhibit is removed? I guess then it puts logind into a "active but
will suspend asap" state which might be difficult to handle.
