Bug Description

If kde's battery monitor applet is set to auto-standby after a set period (ie. 10 minutes), it pops up a notification saying:
"The computer will suspend to disk in 10 seconds. Click here to block the process"

If I click the notification, or close it, the process is not blocked, and the system suspends. There is no button ("cancel", or what ever) on the notification, there is no way for me to halt the process once it's started.

Having a cancel button on the notification would give some user feedback (i.e. animation for button depressing).

I can confirm this issue. Also, at some point, clicking on the message *did* cancel the suspend; I can't remember if this is while I was running KDE 4.2 from the PPA or after 4.2 entered general release.

Notification actions in general were a bit iffy in KDE 4.2, working for some and not others. It should all be fixed up in KDE 4.3, though.
