I think this is a known idea but I didn't find an issue for it.
For laptops, hibernation is great to just close the lid and come back to your work a week later. For security, this is important because so much data is in RAM.
Xen does not support suspend-to-disk, but Qubes could emulate suspend-to-disk by hibernating all the VMs, and then simply shutting down. It would be great if this were formally supported some day.
