All this is quite messy indeed and it duplicates to some extent what
driver suspend/resume does.

Do you know if there are any plans regarding generally having more
fine-grained control over device suspend state through sysfs ?

I guess the main problem would be the respective users of a device,
which we don't have to care about in the current global-only
suspend/resume architecture, since they get suspended along with
the rest.
