gnome 3.8 suspend - systemd and openrc

[polslinux]

I upgraded my system from G 3.6 to G 3.8 and now the "suspend when lid is close" function is not working anymore.
I read that this could be solved by changing from openRC to systemd (A.GnomeF.K.M.??) because the gnome devs have placed the suspend code inside systemd
So my question is:

there is a possibility to have this function integrated into openRC (in a near or a distant future) or am i forced to change from openRC to systemd?

My workaround is using acpid instead:
uncomment lid line in /etc/acpi/default.sh with suspend command:

gooood it works

The only problem is that it doesn't ask for the password at the resume

EDIT: this command can be used to lock screen
