suspend/hibernate support in xfce4-session

looking into the code, I found that the mod uses HAL to suspend (this 
idea seams strange, it would be simpler to provide a configuration file 
to specify the scripts location) .

So the question is : how do I tell to HAL to use a suspend script ? 
(using default scripts provided by hal, or whatever, will usually fail, 
and I have written suspend scripts that work in 98% of the cases 
including laptops, so I must use them).

I want to test, but without any information about this feature, it's not 
easy.

Thanks
JP
