I'm still not sure why that's an especially desirable feature. Every
laptop I've played with will automatically resume from S3 when the
battery level becomes critical, which gives you the opportunity to
suspend to disk. And when it doesn't, you can generally emulate it using
the ACPI alarm to wake up. Is there really a significant quantity of
hardware out there that doesn't support either of these?
