>Description:
Provide details of how to sleep on lid open/close in /etc/powerd/scripts/lid_switch, even if commented out. Referencing another script and decoding that could be improved upon for a better user experience. 

Maybe even briefly describe the magic values for sleep state and/or where to look like in acpi(4). 

I'd venture that most users expect a laptop to enter sleep mode when closing the lid and not just turn off the display. This is bad default behavior.
