That's intentional, if people want to use uswsusp they can.

That's not true. I have it installed and I didn't choose to. pm-utils'
presence in the default install and the moving of uswsusp to Suggests
should prevent this happening though.

I believe this is incorrect, adding a file to /etc/pm/config.d/ will
allow them to use it.

Thanks,
