Heinrich,
In fairness, that's something that could theoretically happen in the Boeing. If unpowered too long, the IRS's (inertial reference systems) have to be realigned and that takes some time while you have to sit motionless. Fortunately, a short electrical lapse won't do it. It would have to be a combination of APU inop (since we could start it quick enough) and ground power disconnected over a couple of minutes - like if the ground power unit just crapped out.
