The default action is suspend:
<key name="power-button-action"
enum="org.gnome.settings-daemon.GsdPowerButtonActionType">
<default>'suspend'</default>
<summary>Power button action</summary>
<description>The action to take when the system power button is pressed.
This action is hard-coded (and the setting ignored) on virtual machines (power
off) and tablets (suspend).</description>
</key>
but you can change that in:
Settings >
Power >
Suspend & Power Button >
When the Power Button is pressed ...
Unfortunately no option exists to prompt the user. So that would be an
enhancement request...
