It's my understanding that the system will issue a sleep command that gets sent 
to all running applications. I believe applications can reject the sleep 
command (a practice frowned upon for obvious reasons), much like an application 
can be told to quit by the system in the process of shutting down, and if it 
refuses, the system will abort the shutdown. 

The real question is, does Revolution refuse to allow the machine to sleep when 
told? Or am I wrong about this?
