yeah... we need a real headless mode (no systry, nothing... just a deamon running)
Yes, from "Issue 72: Don't open an Dialog on Mac in headless mode" (http://code.google.com/p/cog/issues/detail?id=72):
This is even more important now with the MBP retina. A "headless" cog image always forces the GPU to discrete mode, draining the battery. I often use headless (e.g. for Jenkins jobs and web scrapers) and in addition to the distraction of the unneeded window popping up, the switch to the power hogging GPU for no reason is even more of a drag.
