--- Comment #4 from Dmitry Marakasov <amdmi3 at FreeBSD.org> ---
I'm strongly against this. Closing the lid is very common for anything not
involving suspending, e.g. moving a laptop around, turning off the display or
just protecting it against the dust. Suspending running operations, losing tcp
connections and other consequences of suspend/resume in these cases are not
expected, would be an inconvenience at least, and dangerous in many cases,
given the prevalence of misbehaving hardware with high chance of laptop failing
to properly resume. FWIW, I've not seen any other OS to suspend on lid close
for years.

This should be a part of individual tuning which would be needed for most
laptops anyway, along with configuring power profile, driver/firmware loading
and some model-specific quirks such as intel_backlight. The default system
should not play powersaving games without explicit request.
