You guys are driving OOB, so you short-term you can tweak usb-inhibits
with the 3G modems you have. And you've hacked powerd and other bits
of infra in the past, if there's a better way (ie: is there a way to
block suspend when a class of USB device is plugged? or perhaps an NM
hook could set the inhibit-suspend flag?) you are uniquely well
positioned to know, try likely approaches, etc...

cheers,
