I experienced this issue in Lucid. It was a very serious problem because while the computer would appear to power off (screen black and fans off) the CPU was still running and the computer would quickly overheat.

Consider - the user shuts the case (assuming the computer will suspend) and tosses the computer in his padded bag. We all do this every day, right? However the CPU is running at 100%, fans off, and in a padded (insulated) bag. When this happened to me the computer got almost too hot to touch. I am amazed it recovered but who knows how much damage was done.

Computer: T400 w/ discrete ATI + integrated Intel graphics
