Can you elaborate on this?  I have certainly experienced my share of
hibernation / resume failures, but IIUC, the result is the same as if
the system had just crashed - journal recovery is done, etc.  Do you
mean just the sort of data loss that can result from a crashed system,
or do you mean the much more serious problem of the hibernation image
becoming corrupted and the system not realizing this?  I though that
the image integrity is verified by checksums, or some other such
method.  Or do you mean something else entirely?  [Not disagreeing with
you, just trying to understand the potential problems here.]
