Hi Gunnar, I take your point that I'm going beyond fixing this bug - but that (ideally) is what a good tech writer does.
I think here's the answer to my question (link below). The default setting is "suspend" - yes I've checked 16.04 and that is correct. However, there's a bug so that when the setting is "suspend" Ubuntu shuts down when power is critically low. So can I fix this bug and also state that ubuntu by default shuts down when power is critically low? I believe that unless the user fiddles with the gnome settings, which aren't documented in the desktop help, there's no possibility of suspend, so can I remove the info about suspend on this page. In that case it will be a very short page!
