Pavel, SWSusp is mainly useful for desktop users. Although there may be cases where it is enabled on production machines, it should be aimed at desktop users as much as possible. The features to toggle reboot and abort suspend are really, really cool. And combining them with sysrq would just make them very very ugly. Someone mentioned the Gnome2 disaster, and I can only second that. Configurability IS important. And it should be easy as well (/proc is easy enough, good people or distributors can write a script and provide it to end users, etc.). To make the abort of swsusp configurable is the best compromise you can have, IMHO. I don't know why you are so stubborn and don't try to see the 'normal' people (I'm not one of those, but I'm trying to understand!!).
