That would mean having enough available swap, which is often not the
case. When I experimented with hibernate a while back I had to increase
my swap space (I have 16GB of RAM) to get it to work. Of course it
could fall back to not dumping to swap when in 'suspend' mode, but that
might violate the Principle Of Least Astonishment.
