Description
GNOME has an API for temporarily preventing the computer from automatically going into power saving mode (such as sleep/hibernate/poweroff).
In particular, http://www.gnome.org/~mccann/gnome-session/docs/gnome-session.html#org.gnome.SessionManager.Inhibit
There's a D-Bus interface called org.gnome.SessionManager?.Inhibitor (see also http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/01/28/inhibits-and-the-new-world-order/)
It would be very nice if Navit inhibited suspend when routing (or anything that really shouldn't be interrupted).

I know that there is a power managment interface within Navit, but I need more time to figure out under which conditions it already works.
This was discussed some times ago here : #194
In short : currently, you can use a wrapper script.
Nonetheless, supporting the API would be nice (especially since you provided quite some informations about it). Until it gets higher priority for us, patch is welcome.
