This might be a bit contentious, as there not only is effort to
migrate the configuration to SMF, there is a consideration to define
something similar to system-pm-policy. On the other hand, there also
is lacking architecture and there doesn't seem to be much momentum in
providing it.
I am also leaving for vacation on Friday morning. I will take a
printout with me in hopes of maybe reviewing it over the next week.
It may also give others the opportunity to see how this might fit into
the "new" architecture.
Cheers!
