gnome-shell on wayland sleeps system when laptop lid closed

[Tessa]

Just testing out gnome-shell on Wayland, Ubuntu 17.04. When I close my laptop lid to just use my external display, the machine sleeps, even though sleeping on battery power is disabled in power settings. When running on Xorg, it correctly disables the builtin display and continues working with just the external monitor.
