Comment:

 * On XO-1.75 in 12.1.0, suspending from GNOME causes the screen to turn
 off. The system can be woken with mouse, keyboard, or the power button.
  * On XO-1.75 in 13.1.0 build 26, suspending from GNOME works but the
 screen is still on (this is confusing). The system can be woken with
 mouse, keyboard, or the power button.
  * On XO-4 in 13.1.0 build 26, suspending from GNOME works but the screen
 is still on (this is confusing). The system can be woken with the power
 button, but not with the mouse/keyboard.

 So, the fact that the screen doesn't get turned off is a regression. Need
 to triage this to see if it is a release blocker. It was previously turned
 off by a upower hook that we put in place.

 The wakeup method inconsistency is a smaller issue IMO - I think we
 shouldn't bother ourselves with it at this time. I also happen to think
 that having only the power button as the wakeup source in this situation
 is the best thing for the user.
