Description Pavol Klačanský 2013-03-02 10:17:44 UTC 
What is difference regarding functionality between these two strings?

#: ../plugins/media-keys/shortcuts-list.h:150
msgid "Sleep"

#: ../plugins/media-keys/shortcuts-list.h:151
msgid "Suspend"

Sleep is "suspend or hibernate".

I see, so why don't use that, it is confusing ;)
Comment 3 Bastien Nocera 2013-03-04 16:33:34 UTC 
That's the name of the key, I didn't invent it.
Comment 4 Pavol Klačanský 2013-03-04 16:44:48 UTC 
Ahh, can you give me example of that key please? (which does suspend or hibernate dialog?)

The key doesn't popup a dialogue. It's a key on keyboards that doesn't mention whether it will suspend or hibernate. By default gnome-settings-daemon's power plugin will make them hibernate.
