No, not really. They wouldn't violate the current binding, but it would
arguably still be wrong to do so unless that platform actually supports
wakeup without involvement from a glue layer.

Perhaps we should reconsider reverting the binding update adding this
property to the core node and only add it selectively for the platforms
for which is actually applies (if they even exist).

It's not even broken. It has never even been implemented.

Just because someone added a hack that should probably never have been
merged in the first place, doesn't mean we should somehow pretend that
we support it.

I'd rather just revert the binding update to avoid having discussions
like this. We don't even know if it's possible to support on any
platform yet (and remember that none of this has even been in an rc
release yet).
