I haven't looked at the code, but I think a very simple hack would be that when you open a document, a link to it is automatically created in the System folder or so, in a visible folder, called something like "recent". This way you would still have to click on the link after you turn the device on, but you wouldn't have to create the ilnk every time you open a document (which is pretty much what I, and I think also others, do)
You could even have several recently opened links....

The question is whether it's worth it for them to do a temporary workaround that won't be required anymore once the power management is done. I have no idea if they will or won't, I'm just speculating. My guess is no, but I could be completely wrong.
Something like that would actually be a great idea for the open source community to work on, but I don't know if there is anybody outside of iRex with enough familiarity with the code yet to pull it off. So far, most of the work on the DR I've seen is porting applications, not modifications to iRex's code. I'm also not sure if the best place to do it would be in the UDS (which we don't have access to), or the individual viewers. There are others out there with a lot more knowledge of the DR code than me though.
