Firmware can handle it, yes, but not always in the most efficient way.
So this will improve things for people with fanless systems, but for
everyone else
it will just harm performance by throttling the CPU too
much...
I also think that if we do want it in Workstation (I'm not sure we do) we
probably want some notification UI for it to let the user know why their
computer is suddenly extremely slow, like on OSX on the new macbook (you
know, the one with only one port).
