powerd could implement it trivially, and should. (with a simple binary
using dbus activation)

The lack of this functionality causes the XO-1 bootup sequence to be
uncomfortably interrupted with a black screen when powerd unfreezes
too early. We should fix this and I think the above approach is the
best way.

This sounds like exactly what we have already.
