No, the framework only allows clean user and kernel control of levels.
You can use rc.conf to request a switch based on AC line transition but
this is only a partial solution.
I think we should have a powerd daemon that reads system load, disk IO,
etc. and makes scaling decisions as well as powers down ATA disks and
the like. I do not plan to write this.
