Bug Description

System Settings - Power is set to "Shutdown" for "When the power button is pressed:". It should go through a automatic shut down process with out any additional response from me. However it brings up a dialog box asking me what I want to do. That should be the response when the option is set to: "Ask me". As it is now they both act the same.

Setting org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power button-power to "shutdown" does the same as setting it to "interactive", so this is not the plugs fault, but rather a bug in gnome-settings-daemon. Similarly, settings button-sleep to "shutdown" makes it suspend. It seems like "shutdown" is simply ignored, and the keys use their default action instead. Again, this seems to be an upstream bug.
