I tried this for an experiment. Pi was powered down when TV went into

Why would you need it powered if the TV is not in use?
I was more interested in having one powered up but out of the way - so I'd 
gone to the effort of getting a VESA mount and putting it behind the TV 
(Monitor) the TV was a portable 17" one that I'm using as my Pi Monitor - 
I wanted to be able to ssh into the Pi even when not using the 
screen/keyboard.
I also didn't like the Pi simply having the plug pulled - although I do it 
a lot myself with minimal side-effects, it's best to be expecting it!
