Yes. But, actual example time: what about the case where completely
turning off a laptop's DVD drive saves extra power, but then also
turns off kernel and userspace notification of a disc being inserted?
One of the Other OS's handles this by having a popup when the battery
gets low, asking if it's okay to turn the drive off. This is part of
what Matthew is talking about here.
