But is it possible to enable 'Suspend the computer' in the logout

easily or do I need to patch say gdm?
The point is the logout dialog is the wrong place to put that
choice. Suspending is not a function of logging out; nor is the vice
versa. When you resume from a suspend, you want your desktop session
to be in the same state as you left it -- logged in, with all your
applications the way you left them. A logout will clear your current
session and all session services, and force you to log in once again
almost as if you rebooted your machine. They are completely separate
things.
Why not put it, then in the Desktop drop down menu *along* with
log-out, so you'd have log-out *and* suspend in the same menu, but
doing different actions?
Or put them both under a new sub-menu in the Desktop drop down menu.
What it would be called I have no Idea.
Or rename "Logout" menu item as Leon suggested.
Just suggestions to ponder.
Did anyone file the bug yet?
