Hi "without any
GRUB menu popping up for me to decide whether to resume this OS or that"
if in the following file vi /usr/lib/pm-utils/sleep.d/01grub
you short-cirbuit the procedure default_resume_kernel()
then you can again select the OS to boot after hibernation

Yes, if you read my message again, you'll see that we already discovered this (except for the Vista hibernation part - does Fedora hibernation care which is active?). My question is, given that this is the case, why does the F11 installer change the active partition if it doesn't have to?
It might be the drive partitioner, rather than grub, doing it. There's two things you'd have to check on.
It might be important for some BIOSs which partition(s) are active, but it hasn't mattered on computers I've played with in the past, as far as I can recall.
It's possibly even more important regarding hibernation, or more to the point, waking up from hibernation. I've messed around, a bit, with dual boot. And hiberating one OS, then another, it doesn't always resume the Windows hibernation, but the Linux one always resumed (and without any GRUB menu popping up for me to decide whether to resume this OS or that.
