I spoke too fast. Did you click on it without letting go? It will show
you the option to choose between 'Suspend to Disk or 'Suspend to RAM'.
I guess this is sort of a "last chance" option before shutting down if
one indeed only wanted to go for a suspend mode.

The danger is that many people will just try clicking on it, and then
the computer indeed shuts down. Not exactly great usability IMHO.


Regards, Myriam.
