Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

1.) Ubuntu 10.10
2.) Gnome power manager - 2.32.0-0ubuntu1
3.) Be able to set custom times for sleep, monitor off, hibernate, etc.
4.) Only able to set times in defined values of 0:10, 0:30, 1:00, 2:00. This is actually a pretty terrible way to describe the time values and is extremely arbitrary. While I understand the slider of previous versions was difficult and kludgy removing ALL manual options is silly. Let ME choose if I want the computer to sleep after 35mins or 45mins or 3mins.
