I've given this a lot of thought, and I've decided this makes no sense. (Qui-Gon and Anakin's ghosts.)

This is my answer to that question.

All Jedi can turn into force ghosts. All of them.

However, your body only disapears if you are in a state of total peace/acceptance when you die.

Case in points:

Qui-Gon - Just stabbed in the chest, holding on for dear life telling obi-wan to train the kid. Body remains.

Obi-Wan - Takes a stance and lets the lightsaber hit him, killing him instantly. Body disapears.

Various Jedi in battles - They were either killed from behind, murdered, or killed in the arena. Not a lot of time for death preperations. Bodies remain.

Yoda - Died peacefully in his bed. He knew it was his time. He knew "night must fall." Body disapears.

Vader - We don't actually see him disapear, but we don't see him in the suit either. Take it as you will. He may not have been dead while in the hanger bay, but only lost consiousness. He could have disapeared peacefully in the shuttle leaving only his suit. Or not. Your choice.

Makes sense to me. Fuck you Lucas.
