Heya!I don't think that leaving this default behaviour will do any good. First because suspending a live image doesn't makes much sense, second because if it doesn't work properly it will only cause problems and complaints, and last but not least, because people may get upset or confused when the live distro suspends after a relatively short time. I mean, if I wasn't aware of this behaviour and I would find it by the first time, I would think it a bug; and if it doesn't work properly I'll be upset.I would rather prefer to prevent this scenario. Particularly because I don't see the benefits.Maybe someone can throw some light? What are the benefits?
20 minutes of idleness is not really 'a short time' - not like it will suspend while you are pausing to collect your thoughts in the middle of an email.
The benefit is that this default is compliant with power saving regulations in various regions.
As to whether we should change it or not, that depends on how important we consider the 'running uninstalled' use case. Every
change from the default that we do for it adds some extra cost
and makes the 'run live' case weaker for 'trying it out' - you end
up trying something that behaves differently from the real thing...
