It looks like there actually is a bug and not (just) a PEBKAC issue. What I (actually) started out with, was the following custom config: ``` [Login] HandlePowerKey=suspend HandlePowerKeyLongPress=poweroff ``` And when I then pressed the power key *short*, it powered off the system. My initial conclusion that logind.conf.d/custom.conf didn't work was incorrect. If I remove or disable (via prepending it with '#') the LongPress action, then it sees it as a short key press and does the desired thing: suspend. If I set the LongPress action to 'ignore', then it also registers a short key press as a short press and does the desired thing: suspend. But if I set the LongPress action to 'shutdown', then it registers a short key press as a *long* press and does the poweroff action. Attached you'll find the custom config I used (same as quoted above) and also the output from journalctl where all my physical key presses were short.
