Bug Description

The times of inactivity you are allowed to set your computer to sleep after are predetermined. I would like to be able to define these times, preferably in minutes. I know I am probably able to change the value through text files and the command line, but Ubuntu should be as user-friendly as it can be. Having to use a command line for simple things doesn't help with that.
