Public bug reported: I tried to set my laptop not to suspend when closing the lid, I want it to download some files and not have the lid open, but it seemed to be impossible, there is no option for that. I have no idea why not, all OS have this and it is a basic function for a laptop many change it depending on the temporary needs. A simple select option in Power should exist.
