Though I understand the reasons to disable hibernation by default, I strongly disagree with this decision. This feature is simply too important to disable it with no option to easily restore it. When I first tried the beta of 12.04 and couldn't find hibernation where it is supposed to be, I thought it was a bug. Then I realized that it was done on purpose and I was really negatively surprised. Now, I work with computers so googling for a solution was enough for me, but think about regular users: they won't find a really useful feature that competitors provide (Microsoft Windows for example, but of course also other Linux distributions). I never had problems with hibernation, but the rare cases where it causes problems shouldn't be enough to disable it for all the users. In that cases as Martin said about suspend, people will learn to "just don't do that"!! In my opinion the decision should be reconsidered but if it is not possible to enable hibernation by default for the reasons discussed here, please provide an easy graphical way to re-enable it as suggested in the previous comments.
