Important stuff:

System back and restore
Lets you backup all data including save data, screenshots, video clips, patches and download data, as well as your sign in accounts to USB storage - great for anyone wanting to upgrade their HDD without redownloading everything.

Also, this update will most likely hit tonight (25th) in the US and early morning for EU

 

I also enjoy the fact that standby mode won't close my games. Despite that, I would like a mode more like the hibernate option on PCs, so I could completely shut down the console and then start it up right were I was.

The back up is awesome, I always did regular backups on PS3 and I wouldn't upgrade my PS4 HDD if I had to redownload all massive games and patches (usually way bigger than PS3). Now I can get that shiny new HDD.

Actually PCs run on a little percentage of battery while on hibernation. PS4 still needs the power source. I do understand the convenience you mentioned.
