Is that a problem? If someone is clever enough to implement suspend, I think we can trust them to name their states right. (And trust me, we can flame them if not). (Anyway, my definition would be "mem" == RAM is powered, everything else is down, except for devices needed for wakeup; "standby" == something is powered that can be powered down, we'll fix that in next version).
