I don't mind taking that approach on suspend. But every time I've suggested that we enable suspend by default I've gotten push back from everyone saying that it's not reliable enough. Either it is, and we can set up a 10 min suspend by default or it isn't and we shouldn't ask users to do it either.

Also, we can add a button or a informative text when suspend/hibernate doesnt work to guide the users about what to do.
