Then why not support HybridSuspend? It's lovely. It saves to ram and
disk at the same time and then goes into suspend mode. When the machine
runs out of battery, you still got the contents on disk to resume after
rebooting. If you still have battery you're back in few seconds just
like with resume.

It's supported by HAL and pm-utils (in combination with uswsusp) and
it's lovely. I use nothing else.
