When the laptop has been idle for more than the allotted "Automatic
Suspend / On Battery Power" time period, and is then unplugged, it will
instantly go to sleep, despite not being on battery power for that time
period. Often my laptop comes unplugged as I'm picking it up, putting my
laptop instantly to sleep just as I'm about to use it. (This will also
cause an issue for someone picking up their laptop and intentionally
unplugging it before moving to a new location to use it.) Because I am
running intensive computational software which fails when the laptop
goes to sleep, I often lose hours worth of work when I forget to use the
touch pad or press a key before I pick up my laptop after setting it
down for 15 minutes. As a workaround, I have had to disable automatic
suspend altogether.
Proposed Solution:
Treat the unplugging event as a user interaction and reset the "Automatic
Suspend / On Battery Power" timer from that moment.

Ubuntu Release Info:
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04
Package Version:
Not sure which package. I thought it was gnome-power-management, but `apt-cache
policy gnome-power-management` doesn't recognize the package.
What I expect to happen:
Laptop does not go to sleep instantly when it comes unplugged as I'm picking it
up.
What happened instead:
Laptop sleeps immediately when it comes unplugged, despite a full battery.
Laptop works fine and runs for hours on battery power after being woken up
again, proving this is not a battery issue.
