Ubuntu 18.04: Where are the power management profiles?

Back in Unity, there were options in the settings program to manage power settings important to laptops, such as:
- Specify different behaviors for things like dimming the screen or
suspending the system if the computer was plugged in or on battery - Define what happens when the lid is closed (suspend, nothing, etc.)
In the new gnome shell under Power Settings, all configurations besides automatic suspend apply regardless of the charger's status, and there is no option for what to do when the lid is closed.
Are those settings hidden somewhere in the GUI, or can be accessed via command line? If they are not available in the GUI or at all, what would be the appropriate channel to suggest their addition to the development community?

"In GNOME 3.0, we’re defaulting to suspending the computer when the user shuts the lid, and not providing any preferences combobox to change this. This is what the UI designers for GNOME 3.0 want, and is probably a step in the right direction. We really can’t keep working around bugs in the kernel with extra UI controls." blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2011/02/02/… --- The ONLY method of informing you don't like this is by ignoring gnome 3 and install another Ubuntu version
