Download update to PS4 remotely? (Off-Topic)

(at least at launch) the PS4 would check for available updates in sleep mode, but only after more then 24 hours in sleep mode. Not super useful. Even more annoying, unlike the PS3 you can't use IR or Bluetooth to turn the console on so I am not able to use my Harmony to turn on the system so it will check for updates like I can with the PS3 or XBONE (though the XBONE lets you send download commands through the Web site it seems.

I tried adding a new download last night and it didn't start till I got home to turn on the PS4, so take that data point for what it is worth.
