This happens for me too, and has happened for me since dapper. I've
always run Kubuntu, I'm not sure it that's relevant.

Other related behaviour is that in 8.10, powerdevil hibernates when the
battery level is critical, but sometimes it takes longer than expected
(ie. "will suspend to disk in ten seconds" disappears, and hibernate
doesn't start for another 30). In this case, I sometimes manually
hibernate, hoping to avoid completely depleting my battery. The last
time I did this, I plugged in before booting, and then booted.
immediately after resuming from hibernation, the coputer immediately
hibernated again.

I Propose these changes to behaviour: 
- After one task begins a hibernation/sleep/shutdown/reboot process, all 
subsequent such tasks are immediately cancelled, or not allowed to start.
- No hibernation/sleep/shutdown/reboot processes may start within 5 (or 3?) 
minutes of resuming from sleep or hibernation. This would allow the user to 
save any documents open before the computer runs the critical battery task (ie. 
hibernation, or shutdown)
