Gnome-power-manager already supports it, but it cannot do anything for
applications that do not use its dbus interface.

If you use rhythmbox and totem for audio/video playback, you’ll see it
won’t suspend. However nautilus doesn’t support it yet, and as for
non-GNOME applications there is only little support.
