Public bug reported:

Gnome-power-manager is supposed to facilitate better power usage. But it
proves it's stupid. It's stupid because it make my system suspended when
I was downloading important files using wget. I see very clearly in the
preference page of gnome-power-manager that it promises the user  it
won't suspend the system until there is 'no activity' taking placing for
1 hour in   power mode [AC] and for half an hour in power mode
[Battery]. And just like many other system tools in gnome, it's lying
again. It suspends my system even when wget is running in the gnome-
terminal and there is network activities launched by the user himself,
without asking.  I call this stupid. I call this irresponsible. I call
this dishonest.
