Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager

gnome-power-manager does not allow you to set the suspend button to "Do
Nothing" or "Ask Me".    It does have these options for the power button
which is generally harder to hit by accident.

This is a bug, not a feature request as argued in #712650.    System is
behaving in a non-consensual manner which can endanger the integrity of
the system.     Suspend button on Dynex DX-WKBD is located on corner of
keyboard and very easy to bump.    It was possible to disable this key
in previous ubuntu/debian releases; indeed since a parrot used to share
the workstation, it was necessary to disable all particularly
destructive keys like suspend and window close.   Also related to
expired bug #492030.
