gnome-power-manager has some inhibit mechanisms. This means an
application can say "don't suspend" (eg, when you're burning a CD). And
the user can also control this with an applet.

However, root should be able to control what power he gives the users
over this. Root should be able to disable the ability of users to
power off, reset, or hibernate the computer, or on the contrary, force
an hibernation; and this regardless of what desktop the user is using.

Sure, and root can do this via gconf (you can have mandatory settings,
or change the default settings in gconf).
