Critical low power behaviour appears to me to be completely broken:

- "hibernate" option shown in the menu, but disabled - why would it be shown if 
not selectable?
- "shutdown" option available: what possible reason could the user have to shut 
down the system when the battery is critically low? There will likely be loss 
of information anyway (unless the user has a chance to save any files being 
edited...?)...
- "suspend" option missing: it has been mentioned that "suspend" is actually 
the default behaviour, but it doesn't work.
- "do nothing" option missing: why shouldn't it be possible to say "give me 
every last particle of charge the hardware can deliver" when e.g. surfing the 
web, listening to music, reading a book...?

I am reporting this  on 14.04.
