IMHO, the best is to keep it saving more power. Ok, it will take more time to wake up but so what? If someone is putting the machine to sleep, it is because he/she wants to save power. So, IMHO, we should keep the default behavior as-is. Nothing prevents that we would add a modprobe parameter or to use some other method that would allow the user to choose between those two different ways.
