Jep, that's how it seems to be...
But you just gave me a nice idea! I'll research how gnome saves the session and put the command just before the execution of dbus-send ... that means if the command can be executed by the user. (Of course with an option to aktivate/deaktivate this)

You are right. I'm also quite dissapointed in how gnome does things...

... Well it's still better than Unity >_>"

  allow to set restart/resume time

Bug description:
  Linux provides a simple way to schedule a restart event that is
  particularly usefull in conjuction with initiating or scheduling a
  shutdown or suspend.

  rtcwake -m on -s <seconds-util-start-event>

  Howerever, just as the shutdown command it requires root privileges.

  The particular command given in the example above avoids that rtcwake does any switching into another power state (mode -m stays on).
  This allows that the power state fully handled by the regular installed power managment (userspace) tools, which is often more stable than the pure kernel/rtcwake, especially on resume.

  To test it, just schedule a wake event, then do a regular
  shutdown/suspend. Later, the real time clock will trigger the
  scheduled power up event and the machine comes back up.
