Affects: gnome-applets (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
Currently, if I choose Shutdown in the System menu option and pick the
"Sleep" option (which does Suspend-to-RAM), I'm booted from my session
and after that the computer does suspend-to-RAM. When coming back, I'm
presented with the GDM login.

This is really really bad. If I want to suspend-to-ram I *do not want to
logout* of my session. I just want to suspend it to resume it later.

This was the Sleep behaviour in earlier releases (I'm testing Dapper)
and I, for one, cannot tolerate to be booted of my session when
suspending the computer.

Please revert the changes, the old stuff was just fine so there is
really no need to change it.
