Right, you have to bear in mind the options g-p-m gives are the ones users understand. To a user: suspend = quick, but bad if my battery runs out hibernate = sloooow, but good if my battery runs out So, to a user, a hybrid suspend is a lot like a "hibernate", except it comes back faster if the battery doesn't run out. So in that sense, I would think mapping the DeviceKit-power Hibernate() method [and thus g-p-m] to hybrid suspend on systems that support it to be a very good idea. Of course, that assumes hybrid suspend works as well as hibernate, which may be true or false.
