I don't really think this would be a good addition for a few reasons.
1, when the player is sleeping, you aren't doing anything. Like, at all. Your screen is mostly black and you can barely hear anything. You're essentially forced to remove yourself from the round, strapped to a bed while the game is going by around you. And yes, while security is strong in RP, it's not like the antags never win. I routinely am stressed to my limit as security on goon 3, and rounds can get very chaotic with antags doing antag things.
2, How I see it, we're on the clock, and it doesn't make sense that we'd be sleeping that much throughout our workday. The crew quarters are there for the people who live on station, stay behind for a few shifts, or are otherwise there for a longer period. I'd imagine that the employees of the station probably get some sleep before their shift, not while they're working. We're employees of the station, not permanent inhabitants of it(for the most part.)
edit: Concerning security being too powerful, I don't think the way to fix this imbalance is to remove them from the round temporarily. I think the way in which things could be more balanced is a whole other nuanced discussion, but I definitely don't think that this is the solution.
