Assuming it uses up an existing part, then it doesn't seem so 
attractive. However, if this was the *only* way it could be 
implemented in the space constraints, then yes, I could live with it. 

But, as I would probably want to use it in this mode most of the 
time. I think it would be more elegant to have a user conf function 
to set the suspend start mode if at all possible.

All the best
