Currently I hibernate the machine
Be really careful with hibernate.  I'm one of the thousands of people whose laptop system drive suddenly found itself in a RAW state, because of flaws in the hibernate process.

There's no recovery from that; you have to repartition and format the drive (after you've used disk tools to recover umpty-million unnamed files from it).

Just put it to sleep.  the average laptop will sleep on battery for an immense length of time, so it's not going to land you with a huge power bill if it (or the dock) is plugged in.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
