Ted Gould has drawn my attention to these:
<http://upower.freedesktop.org/docs/UPower-up-client.html#up-client-get-can-suspend>
<http://upower.freedesktop.org/docs/UPower-up-client.html#up-client-get-can-hibernate>

And Javier has pointed out that as of today (!), these functions are
used by gnome-control-center to disable the Suspend and Hibernate
functions if appropriate: <http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-control-
center/commit/?id=4f08a32570490f837e7c6909b095d2b44f4c05ee>

So an updated way of wording (1) above would be: "On new PC models,
up_client_get_can_suspend() and up_client_get_can_hibernate() often
return true when they should return false, leading Ubuntu to present
Suspend and Hibernate functions that don't work without software fixes."
