Bug Description

When writing code that needs to know if the device screen is currently on or off, there is no way of getting the current (initial) value of the DisplayPowerState property.

I would expect either get access to this property through the standard org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties interface or have a explicit getter as part of com.canonical.Unity.Screen interface.
