From the sounds of it various others are interested in the ability to trigger a device disconnect as well. Since I don't think any of us have a good enough understanding of the HID / input frameworks, I'm adding Benjamin and Jiri. Maybe they have some good ideas on how to tackle this.Well, this really depends on the low-level (transport, as we call it in HID) driver. USB, for example, has it's own runtime power management, and the devices auto-suspend and auto-resume themselves almost automatically without too many specific generic code requirements. What is the hardware transport we're talking about here?
From my side, it's Bluetooth.
