I actually think I like the idea of allowing what Activity you're using at the time set the expected power profile. With that said I agree with Andras and Stefan that the power management profile should not require having to make a new Activity just to e.g. change when my monitor sleeps. What about instead having a "Current Activity" power profile in addition to "Custom" (or whatever it's currently called). Switching Activities would automatically switch the power profile, /if one is assigned to the Activity/. >From there, to make changes you'd have to switch to "Custom" and then tweak. I can say that on my laptop I've used the power management widget all the time, but the only times I've touched Activities has been completely by accident, since I use the laptop for basically one thing. So while Activities should guide power management I'd really hate for them to become the /only way/ to control power management. Regards, - Michael Pyne
