I find it a rather basic operation to be able to wake up remote  
systems from a central place, so I think base is the right place for  
this.  Wak-on-LAN as become part of our everydays IT infrastructure,  
as much as we support it in BIOSes and ifconfig's, we should also  
support waking up systems.
