I think I understand the basic idea, let me describe the props limitations, and
we can then refine this.
A cog is stopped or running, can go to a lower power state by some of the wait
instructions. Such as waitcnt, waitpne waitpeq...
When the prop is in really low power mode, it takes a while for it to come up
to speed, so it will "miss" some keys.
So how about, while waiting for key input a cog goes to as low power as
possible, waitcnt and wakes up every second or so to check for input.
When all the cogs are "sleeping", it goes into a very low power mode if no keys
have been hit for x seconds.
The prop wakes up when a key is hit, user must wait for a prompt before sending
more keys.
Not sure about some details, but I think something like this is workable.
