[xfce4-power-manager] Locking on sleep breaks laptop lid actions

Hi Xfce-dev list,

Currently for me on my Netbook, running Manjaro, enabling the "Lock 
screen when system is going for sleep" option (in the Security tab of 
Power Manager's settings) breaks the PM's ability to manage what happens 
when the laptop lid is closed.

I've narrowed this down to the "Lock screen when system is going for 
sleep" option enabling the following xfconf setting:
xfce4-power-manager/logind-handle-lid-switch

If i disable this setting myself manually (but leaving the other changes 
the lock at sleep option modifies) everything works as expected.

Do you need this option to be enabling that xfconf setting? If so, i 
suppose we'll have to patch xfce4-power-manager for Manjaro...
