Ok, I have discussed this with Jason W and I think we have a final
decision on this item for Oneiric:

1. Suspend is enabled by default on all computers.  A option to disable
Suspend is shown in the power indicator, see
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power

2. Hibernate is disabled by default on all computers, unless the
computer is on a whitelist.  The whitelist should include all "Ubuntu
Certified" ( http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/ ) computers on which
hibernate is tested regularly and proven to work.   Perhaps in the
future this list could also be augmented by a community certification
process?  A user can re-enable hibernate at any time by going to the
power settings, as shown in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Power

cheers,
John
