It was suggested in the original review (https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/126627/),
it's basically because all that this is inhibiting has to do with idle time detection,
so it kinda fits into KIdleTime. Also since this is rather simple thing (just a couple
of dbus calls), it's preferred to be in a smaller, tier1~ish library.
