I completely agree. My use case is something like this. I run an X
server on WXP and have emacs frame running on a remote GNU/Linux box.
When I put my laptop in standby mode with the emacs frame on my local
X server on WXP and wake up my system, the emacs process on the remote
GNU/Linux machine is killed.
 I now make sure I close all emacs frames before putting my laptop on
standby/hibernate. If I forget, it is gone!
