NO! That's wrong in so many ways...
You need to configure this in gnome-power-manager or KDE's power-management-application-of-the-day. Not in YaST.
Policy is up to the desktop session, since years. Acpid is only used as an events multiplexer, because the kernel hackers are too lazy to implement multiple open for /proc/acpi/event ;-)
I am usually using icewm or sometimes even a plain Linux text console, so there should be a way that does not need Gnome or KDE. After all, why not allow for system-wide defaults? btw: the netbook came preinstalled with Xandros which is a derivative of Debian/4.0 (etch) - and it had icewm nicely adapted to show on the bottom battery status and caps/num-lock status (because hardware has no LEDs for them) and such. Didnt yet check how they solved the suspend-on-lid.
