Richard: you are right, I apologise - it seems that there is really no consensus at all about the right language to be used here.

So, we've decided[1] to use the suspend + hibernate combination, as used in gnome-power-manager. As a result, I've reassigned the bug to gnome-panel so that the strings there can be made consistent with gnome-power-manager.

** Description changed:

  In the log out dialog, "suspend" is called "sleep", while it is called
  "suspend" in gnome-power-manager. It might be a good idea to use the
  same word everywhere.
+ 
+ Please change the string in the logout dialogue as follows:
+ 
+ Sleep --> Suspend
+ 
+ No other strings should need to be changed.
