Would be a good addition for future. But note that compared to most other phones, power on from total shutdown is quite long.
What would be good is an option to go to hibernate (not only sleep). Even without programmed wake up, this would allow to shutdown your phone and start it up again without : 1-waiting for whole boot process (if you need to make an emergency call I imagine how frustrating this would be ! -Maybe an easy boot option to have just emergency calls available ASAP would be a nice addition-) 2-loosing your context (the application you were running,...) And totally shutdown the phone is useful when you want to really use 0 battery for some time, you want to pull off the battery (extract SIM, put a spare battery....). -> As of now, is it possible to force Android to sleep (even if only to RAM), so that it does nothing except keep state in memory, and wake up on button press ?
