I have been listening this one (but it requires dbus still)

I wonder though, how are we developers supposed to know about these DBus services? Are they documented somewhere? I also suspect that the org.nemomobile.dbus import won't be allowed in Harbour, though I assume that it should be possible to just ship the module along with my application. I'm still looking for a way to detect when the screen goes blank, i.e. when the device enters sleep mode. Any ideas?
