Another way would be to not fade out the screen until *after* I click 
"Sleep" or "Hibernate". To fade out before then is silly, because you 
have to snap back to the unfaded state for anything other then sleep or 
hibernate.

"Windows XP does it" might be a good reason for features, or even 
interface layout, but it's not a good reason for jarring visual effects 
that don't make sense.
