IDLE IMMEDIATE UNLOAD should not require media spinup.

Curtis: Is there some specific wording change you want to suggest ?
      Do you want a document number ? or just put it in the 'open issues'
list ?

Thank You !!!

Currently ATA/ATAPI-7 requires the drive to transition from Standby to Idle
when an IDLE IMMEDIATE is received.  However, the IDLE IMMEDIATE UNLOAD is
really only for head retraction.  Does it make sense to require a media
spin-up in this case?
