So we are knowingly risking people's laptops just running out of battery in a bag somewhere and their systems dying with possible data loss? As the default?
Hybrid suspend has never really been supported. You certainly can choose to hibernate instead of suspend-to-RAM.

My worry with hybrid suspend is that the disks will spin up at exactly the wrong time, when I'm banging my bag around, and damage the hardware. I generally think about suspending vs. hibernation vs. power off before putting the computer away.
I'd like to see all available options when I press ALT instead of just shifting from "suspend" to "shutdown".
