This (abort on open files) should be the case even if hibernation is
manually instigated by the user from the desktop, though perhaps a "-F |
--force" command-line option might be implemented to allow it to be
forced. It's absolutely essential if hibernation might be instigated by
a default policy.

Rather pop up a dialog - if the hibernation is triggered from the desktop. If it comes from a command like "powersave -U" it has to be forced (it may come from low UPS battery alarm). Same for low battery. Also to consider is if the user closes the lid of a portable, I think it should be forced, or give a loud audible warning.

And all this should be configurable by root via Yast.


I should add that I'm all in favour of power-saving measures such as
hibernation - but they do require prior resolution of issues such as
this. Until then it mustn't be the default.

Absolutely!
