It means it's a lower priority. The aim is obviously to find a solution that doesn't reduce the functionality, but given the choice between supporting a pressing and immediate use-case and supporting something that's so poorly tested that it was causing filesystem corruption on anything with Intel graphics for several releases, the choice is fairly obvious.

The key words in that sentence are "Intel graphics". Hibernation works perfectly well for me and seems a valuable feature.

Hmm…fun. I've been hibernating my netbook which has Intel graphics and have not seen/noticed any failures. I'll be doing a fsck next boot :) .
