Bug Description
When running docky (r1002 from ppa) powertop reports docky is causing many (always more than 35) wakeups per second. I am currently running docky with 2 docks:
vertical dock on left with 'Bookmarks' and 'Recent Documents'
horizontal dock on bottom with some launchers, GMail, Weather, Mounter, CPU Monitor, Clock, Trash docklets, as well as having the Rhythmbox, Tomboy and Open Terminal helpers active.
This is under Ubuntu Karmic x86_64, using NVidia proprietary drivers, output when running docky with -d is:

Should probably have mentioned that this is when docky is idle (ie. it causes lots of wakeups even when appearing to be doing nothing)
