It's the English that I'm unhappy with.
"can go on OFF state" doesn't sound right.

It's a bit better, yes. Although it's still a little difficult to read. In fact, I can't even recommend a suitable alternative, since I still do not understand exactly what it is you're trying to say.

I guess there are too many '.*sleep.*' properties now, each with slightly different syntax and meaning. The situation is exacerbated by one of the key examples is using the property with cells expected i.e. non-bool.
