+1.  Actually, I thought I had RFE'd this in Bugzilla some time ago but can't 
find it now.

I don't know about the above, but my use case is setting the ACPI wakeup time 
to /proc/acpi/alarm (an essential feature for eg. PVR boxes to have them wake 
up on time for the next timed recording).  /etc/init.d/halt runs hwclock 
which as a side effect clears the wakeup time, so it needs to be set after 
hwclock.
