Thanks for the update! Updating logind looks like a great way forward.
Let me know if I can be of any help. Until then this works as a
workaround:

dbus-send --print-reply --session --dest=org.gnome.Shell /org/gnome/ScreenSaver org.gnome.ScreenSaver.Lock ; dbus-send --print-reply --system --dest=org.freedesktop.UPower /org/freedesktop/UPower org.freedesktop.UPower.Suspend
