To me, this sounds like it'd be more useful to have a generic command
to run a process and prevent the machine from suspending until the
process has ended. Something like:
nosuspend [options] [--] command [options] [args]...
Example:
nosuspend obnam backup
This way, there wouldn't be any need for suspend blocking code in
every command line utility.
What do you think?
