Will do so. Just wanted to get some impressions here before filing a bug.

I had a Dell laptop a which I bought about 4 years ago. I almost
always suspended it (no hibernation) and when it got to 14 months
(warrant was over) it died (hard die, like in motherboard chip got
fried).

The guy in Dell told me not to suspend the laptop, at least not for
long periods of time, which really surprised me.

About cold boot, well even if the cold boot is fast, there is lots of
things I need to get starting before I start to work (ssh keys, login
to monitoring systems, etc) which make a cold boot extremely tiresome.

This looks like a kernel bug, as you can specify a boot partition
using UUID, so why not the one to resume from.
