Just make sure this gets implemented in the right place and ensure this
can be disabled and is disabled by default as well as have proper
permission since you dont want to grant the ability to friends who have
paired their mobile devices or tablets with their friends computer the
ability to wake up/suspend that friends device.
And working on Apple device(s) is one thing, working on all devices is
another and supporting this is a bit of an hot potato since many laptop
manufactures will not allow a Bluetooth device to wake the computer from
sleep mode because of the power consumption requirements to keep the
Bluetooth radio activated.
So with this feature for people that are to lazy to press the power
button to wake up their computer from standby or hibernation, comes
plethora of ( not supported ) bugs so who wants to eat all "it does not
work for me bugs" and keep a database of supported hardware in the wild ;)
