The "hibernate" option is now present, but greyed out, which I guess is
because hibernation is disabled globally, which in turn I guess is
because hibernation doesn't work in most cases (very sad that nothing
has been done to fix that yet).

The "suspend" option is missing completely, though it is actually the action 
that is taken by default.
I wonder what happens if you change it and choose "turn off". You probably 
won't be able to ever set it to "suspend" again, which inconsistent with the 
fact that it is the one configured by default. On a fresh install, in the Power 
settings the current option is shown as an empty item, and it does not appear 
when you unfold the dropdown (see screenshot).

By the way, suspend does not work at all with low batter, see #1239402.
Perhaps that is the reason why it has been removed as a choice? But if so, then 
it shouldn't be the default one.

I can't understand how such huge issues don't get attention, when they
are the most critical ones which are making Ubuntu a terribly unstable
system which cannot be used safely.
