 This is not really power-management per se. But I agree, and I am sure
 I find time to rework powerd(8) to follow rc.conf(5)-like YES/NO -scheme
 for most of the knobs.
 
 But everyone, how do we resolve this now and here? Should the commit be
 reverted? It seems that ATM the default is "right for some machines, and
 wrong for some machines".
