-s is already used for --shutdown. I like to keep it there because of
the compatibilty with the Windows shutdown.exe.

And what does sleep mean, hibernate to disk or to RAM? There is a lot
of confusing about the terms hibernate. sleep, suspend and standy. If
I understand it correctly, hibernate is to disk and the others are to
RAM. But I can be wrong.
