I don't mind taking that approach on suspend.  But every time I've
suggested that we enable suspend by default I've gotten push back from
everyone saying that it's not reliable enough.  Either it is, and we can
set up a 10 min suspend by default or it isn't and we shouldn't ask
users to do it either.

Title:
  Disable suspend/hibernate options when they are not supported

Status in Ayatana Design:
  New
Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Id like to proposse a change in the design of Power preferences in the
  GNOME control center: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power

  Instead going throuh the "certification" path, we can simply disable
  the options about suspend/hibernate if Its not supported in the
  current hardware (we have api for this in upower)

  I think this solution is more scalable, as we do not need to maintain
  a database with "certified" hardware. Also, we can add a button or a
  informative text when suspend/hibernate doesnt work to guide the users
  about what to do.
