That has changed. Both PDP Media Remotes for PS4 can turn a PS4 on. Still proprietary, but they're technically not PS4 controllers.
Reading from Amazon reviews, also the PDP PS4 IR Receiver For Logitech Harmony Remote Control Devices can turn a PS4 on. But I can't confirm this as I don't own one.

I'm going to assume it's because they lie and present themselves as legit PS4 controllers. I tried to buy the IR adapter but it was perpetually pending release and I gave up.
