Understanding how idle works
Because of the way logind awkwardly duplicates the idle management of the compositor, but in a way that splinters client tooling, and without any of the access or convenience of the compositor, logind integration is a candidate for removal from swayidle: https://github.com/swaywm/swayidle/issues/117.

Is there a systemctl equivalent for runit?
I would understand if there isn't, because what's the point of even using a different init if it handle everything anyway... But I want it so I configure wlagout to use something similar to systemctl. Unless I just do it the old fashion way and put /sbin/reboot and /sbin/shutdown in the sudoers and call it a day.
