Disabling sync/notification/data isn't needed only when I'm working on
my computer, but if I'm walking in mountain, I don't care and I don't
wan't Gmail, Twitter etc to sync, because I absolutely don't wan't
notifications, but I wan't to save battery. I must leave my phone
powered on, to receive calls if someone in the group has a problem, or
if I need to phone to rescue fast, but I don't wan't useless services. I
will not be able to charge battery for a few time, and in theses case,
my smartphone just has to be... a phone ! Then maybe I will need an
information (on meteo etc) then I will wake cellular data, but just for
this shoirt time and I don't wan't to have it awake all the time.

This is even more important at work : I use an internal webapp for
working (taking my job and some tests), but usually I have no use of any
kind of data (or sync) like mails etc. Cellular data is not a service I
use H24, but a service I need one or two times a day, and I need to save
battery and data consumption rest of the time.
