I explained my view on the ubuntu-doc mailing list:
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-doc/2016-July/020106.html
So in short:
* To the extent an UI freeze exception is needed for SRU:ing the actual
u-c-c change: Ok from a docs POV.
* The change would still not justify the work with SRU:ing the
corresponding spot in the desktop guide.

Bug description:
Since the move to systemd (I think) the setting in unity-control-
center under "Power" that says:
When power is critically low: [Hibernate | Power Off]
doesn't actually do anything any more.
That action is now controlled by Upower config in
/etc/UPower/UPower.conf. At the end of that file you can see:
# The action to take when "TimeAction" or "PercentageAction" above has been
# reached for the batteries (UPS or laptop batteries) supplying the computer
#
# Possible values are:
# PowerOff
# Hibernate
# HybridSleep
#
# If HybridSleep isn't available, Hibernate will be used
# If Hibernate isn't available, PowerOff will be used
CriticalPowerAction=HybridSleep
So the default action is HybridSleep and is not configurable by the user in the control center anymore.
FWIW - I think the best thing to do is just remove that setting from
u-c-c altogether.
