That will help the guide coordinator ensure that the issue is appropriately addressed. Point 1) seems especially relevant, that much should be explicitly clear. fwiw, it seems like hibernation is generally falling out of favor these days. I know not everyone has newer systems, but those that do have machines that use shockingly little power on suspend, and cold boot faster than a resume from hibernate could ever achieve. On point 3, one would hope that resuming from hibernate didn't require you to manually edit the grub configs every time :) I'm not well versed in the area, but it smells like at least one bug/deficiency from here.
