Good point. There is an additional consideration.
Shaggy, you says reopening the files and the power management are duplicated, so the Irex should focus on the latter one. OK, We imagine the suspend-to-flash is finished now. So when the device is hibernated and we want to wake it up. I do not know the detail process, but I am sure there is a step to check whether there are files opened before the hibernation, what the opened files are and where they are so that the device can reopen those files. When developing a software, we want to implement a function as a component so that many components can work cooperatively to form a bigger function. Thus reopening files can be a component that is used or called by the component of power management, which means the reopening files must be mandatory, because it is just a step in the power management. olis is right. I guess they have such component already and what they do is just link the initialization of the tabs to the reopening-files component. It should not be difficult.
Therefore, reopening documents will be NOT 'wasted time' and NOT 'unnecessary'.
