[Bug 870019] [NEW] suspend on idle behavior should be preseedable

 

Public bug reported:

The current default behavior of new installs is to suspend on idle.
While I would argue this isn't a great default, I understand why it is.
However, many computers do not suspend well (including qemu-
kvm/libvirt), and enterprise environments may want to disable the
behavior for any number of reasons. Suspend on idle should be a
preseedable debconf question (medium, to avoid prompts). This would
allow OEMs to better finetune the behavior as well.

** Affects: gnome-settings-daemon (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
