I thought that might be the case, however pressing a button on the
Apple Remote can wake a laptop from lid-closed, much like pressing a
button on the keyboard. So unless this is done purely in hardware I'm
thinking there has to be a way round it.
There's a kext called SleeplessX or something which attempts to usurp
part of the system power management foobage that is supposed to let
you stop your laptop from sleeping, but it's entirely unsupported, and
it probably breaks things.
I think the reasoning is that if the lid is closed, the system may
well be in a restricted airflow environment (e.g. a laptop bag) and
thus running it would be a very bad idea. Wake should require user
interaction.
