Or does it mean that the reverse-engineered fingerprint driver (or its
PAM glue) is leaving the darned thing on all the time, which is bound to
not only waste power and cause thermal disconfort, but maybe even damage
the fingerprint hardware eventually?

Time for someone to go after that bug, or to donate me a T61 with Intel
graphics (which would mean instant major increase in the support level
for that model in thinkpad-acpi and everything else that is clearly
causing that much trouble) ;-)
