I have already opened a request to add a section to the release notes:
    https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=439980
No need to open a new one, just add your text there ;-)

I use openSUSE on several servers hosted some hundred kilometers away. 
It wouldn't be "nice" if they auto-suspend because nobody presses any 
key for an hour...

Hmm, can auto-suspend be disabled if the (default) runlevel is 3? IMHO 
using runlevel 3 is a very good indication that a machine is used as 
server ;-)

Having things like apache, mysql or samba daemons running is also a good 
indication for a server - maybe the initscripts of these daemons could 
also disable auto-suspend.
