Intentional design, but we welcome feedback, thanks.  We've been trying
to figure out how to have it wake during a download to accept the
packets that have arrived and then go back to sleep.  We've a ticket on
that.  http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/10058

Known issue, won't fix apparently.  No developer thinks it needs to be
fixed.  You saw the workaround.  ;-}

Yes.

Heh.  I agree, not likely to be a worry.  I've tried just then and it
causes F1 through F4 to no longer work, and trying to move to those
views with the Frame icons fails to achieve anything.

Known, thanks.

In the case of what you've provided in this thread, no, but don't stop
reporting problems if you don't have the time to check if we know about
them.

http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Reporting_bugs has some interesting stuff
about how to ensure things are reported.
