Title:
  Make suspend to disk dumb-proof

Status in “grub” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: acpi-support

  When hibernating, Ubuntu does nothing to make sure to boot next time the same kernel. It can lead to loss of data if incorrect kernel is booted. In my opinion, Ubuntu should make temporary changes to grub configuration that would
  - disable menu
  - set up timeout to some sensible value (not to waste time but leave space for corrections if something goes wrong)
  - make running kernel image option default (either through save default or explicitly stating it)

  and revert these changes after waking up of course. AFAIK OpenSUSE
  does something like this.
