Hmm, I think you should be careful about advertizing rfkill as a power-saving mechanism, because that's not what it is designed to be. In our case, the implementation will end up being equivalent to unbind/bind, which is as good as it gets, but there's nothing in the rfkill architecture that says that there isn't a better way to save power. In fact, you're not even guaranteed to save any power. Unfortunately, this means that power saving is still something whose mechanism needs to be decided on a case by case basis. - Werner
