Ubuntu currently has two modes of "thinking" about the current hardware's ability to hibernate:
"I know it work, therefore it should be available to the user" and "I know it does not work, therefore it should be hidden from the user".

Ubuntu is missing the third mode:
"I do not know whether it will work, so the user should know the option exists, but be warned that there's a risk involved; also, if hibernating has been known to work, I should record the current hardware as 'I know it works'."
