I think we could look for shell activity. It needs some testing but 
$ps -ac | grep bash

returns the working user shells. I configured screen Unix utility to use
bash shell. We should also include in this shell a working screen (VNC).

So the best on SSH logout would be test the number of working shells and
go to sleep mode within 5 minutes when no shell activity exists.

On the converse any SSH access needs to disable sleep mode.

The Mac G4 seems to be power consuming. It warms up my cellar.
