In lightroom (and I imagine PS camera raw), what is the difference between the 
exposure slider and the brightness slider?

I expect that exposure is just a linear multiplier on the raw value, the slope 
of the line as it were, and the blacks slider is the "b" of the y=mx+b of a 
linear conversion from raw to final.

I can't figure out what the brightness slider does.  It's odd that in library 
mode, if you click on brightness twice, it seems to go to a default of 0, while 
in develop mode, clicking on it twice seems to set it to 50.

I'd actually be interested in seeing a simple description of the mathematical 
transforms of each of the lightroom exposure sliders, so I could better 
understand what I'm actually doing when I twiddle and frob them.
