I think it also has to do with what kind of mouse you have. Besides the Apple Trackpad (which had the batteries go out 2 days ago and I have not had a chance to go to my battery stash and get new ones -- using up my older Alkalines in it), I also now have an "iBuffalo" Blue Focus mouse, which I got in Japan last fall. It is like that. A click will wake up the mouse (and the screen) while movement won't. But the mouse it replaced, some sort of Microsoft which finally wore out and started getting weird, WOULD wake up the mouse and screen with just a movement. (Same OS major version too with Lion). I did notice that Machine Sleep would only happen with keypress or mouse press with Lion, when I first installed Lion.
