Description Phillip Wood 2015-10-06 10:22:40 UTC 
Doing this in the shell rather than gnome-settings-daemon simplifies
things for users that want to customize power key actions - see bug

Inhibit power keys while screen is locked

This stops someone turning the computer off with the keyboard while
the screen is locked. gnome-settings-daemon used to take care of this
but to do so it overrode the default system actions of the power
keys. Inhibiting them in the shell means gnome-settings-daemon no
longer has to override the default system actions for the power keys,
making it easier for users to customize those actions.

This isn't needed as gnome-settings-daemon has fixed the problem in a different way
