This patch would be very nice to include. One thing to pay attention
to is that the "-n standby" parameter for smartctl is only available
since smartmontools 5.37 (etch has 5.36). So I think the debian
package could include this patch and add versioned Conflicts and
Suggests for smartmontools.

Regarding upstream, there is a related task:

http://munin.projects.linpro.no/ticket/137

I had reopened it and submitted a patch before I saw this debian bug
report. My patch uses hdparm -C, which is less elegant, but it will
work with older versions of smartmontools, so maybe it is more
appropriate for upstream at the moment.

Cheers,

Daniel
