An official Sony branded remote isn't out yet. But there are 2 other remotes for the PS4 that I have seen (both cheap brands).
They both get horrible reviews - like you said, no power control. And very limited buttons. Both I think use a USB port for a dongle to work.

I was hoping since there is some control available now, from these cheap manufactures. That there was movement now from the better manufactures for this product.

Prices have come down so much on Bluray players and streaming boxes however, it really doesn't make any sense to not get a dedicated box for that. Rather than trying to use a PITA game console to do it.
BUT!!! I ran into a customer last week, that insisted on using his PS4 for everything. I sold him an A/V receiver, that had plenty of inputs. But he refused to listen to the logic. All I could do is shake my head. And tell him "No sir, I can't add you're PS4 onto that universal remote at this time".
