My plan is to have a "WakeupCommand" setting per slave.  When the master
wants to wakeup a slave, it will run this command.  I was considering making
it a special case if the command actually was just a xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
format MAC address.  In this case, the master would just use a
SendWOL(QString MAC) method in backendutil.cpp rather than relying on the
user to install another WOL binary.
