Better a /sys/power/wakeup_event (or whatever) that's more easily
found.  It could link to the device issuing the event.

It might be best not to need to re-activate the whole system from
STR though ... it ought to be possible to just power off, having
already written the image to disk.  Right?

Yes, there's all that stuff about how to quiesce the system properly,
freezer/icebox/flamesuits/etc.  Regardless, going from STR to fully
operational and then hibernating would take time and energy that
might not be available...
