First, am not complaining, at least I hope I don't sound like it.
Second, no my remark is, that IF I encrypt root and home (as offered by the
installer now, which is a great feature added, since before I could only
encrypt home) I can't hibernate, since hibernation does not work on encrypted
partition.
So it's more like "option to encrypt root/home breaks hibernation
functionality" (since I can only hibernate to root, correct?).
That swap itself should be encrypted as well would probably be more an
"additional feature request".
But if hibernation would work on encrypted partitions, the hibernation file
itself would already be encrypted and thus not be able to leak information.
I'm not 100% sure but I think Fedora 9 somehow solved the problem of
hibernating to an encrypted partition, at least the corresponding bug report
has been closed: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=247794
