Yes.  The intention here is to respond to events instead of having
absolute values like the previous design.  So that unplugging is an
event that is responded to, and so is plugging in or going idle.

I think that removing the slider from the preference panel is the next
step.  And then the on AC value just becomes the saved value to use at
init.

Part of the problem is that it's difficult to trust the values that are
in GConf because many hardware setups change them without bothering to
tell GPM.  So it's important to grab the value from the hardware before
looking to change it.  There are several bugs in Launchpad with this
problem.
