Only one comments:
- What if someone somebody implement suspend2usbstick/suspend2network or what 
ever? Then you need new properties again, because they are not the same as 
suspend/hibernate, because they maybe need additional parameter or other 
handling than the current. And how do you plan to name this keys to differ 
between the capabilities? Add new mystic names as hibernate? IMO the current 
names would allow easy reflect all existing and furture ways to suspend. As I 
already sad: we should not change the keys ...

@richard: Btw: I don't saw until now _no_ mail to discuss this with SUSE or 
powersave ppl. What kind of discussion is this?
