Comment (by jg):

 Richard:
 I've verifed that I can turn off the display and then bring it back
 alive with openfirmware.

 Joel verified with the power readings that if you disable the dcon then
 the rail drops.

 So I think we are good if we have to go the dcon disable route to get
 sleep mode power down to reasonable levels.  Kernel will have to start
 groking how to init the display but that should not be too hard.
