Power button settings (or lack thereof)

I recently upgraded to f16 and have hit a snag

I would like to set my power button to display the shutdown menu when pressed, instead of putting the computer to sleep. The option to do tat was in F15 but is absent in F16. Gnome Tweak Tool is also missing the setting, although it has the settings for my laptop lid.

Is there anyway to change that setting?

Re: Power button settings (or lack thereof)

There is a dconf key for that, but I'm not sure what to change it to. it has to be a string, but I don' t see a list of possible values anywhere. currently it is set to suspend, and hibernate seems to be another valid option, but beyond that, I'd also like to know and change this behaviour.
