I can certainly understand that.

A bit more googling, and all I found was a blog post referring to a
#gnome-shell IRC conversation from late February, reporting that devs
wanted to suspend, then wake up after 30 minutes and suspend-to-disk.
Can't find any other references.

The issue with my laptop is that it appears to suspend properly, but
the screen will not power back on when trying to resume. Everything
else seems to work OK (had headphones plugged in, and banshee resumed
the track it had been playing when it suspended). I filed it under
pm-utils because I was testing it out around the time of the test day,
but didn't have time to run a full test suite. Is there a better
component for it? Hibernation is a whole other kettle of fish, and I
have not had time to do a bug report on it yet.
