I've been resisting doing something like this, hoping that the SlimFolk would "do the right thing" (ie, do what I want them to do) in the server. Unfortunately, it looks like they're not going to, based on recent bug mails. This solution has a really bad property. It completely mangles the settings in the UI. During the "bright" period, the value of the powerOffBrightness setting is on thing, and during the "dim" period, it's something else. In fact, if I read this code right, if you set the powerOffBrightness value during the "dim" period, your change in the setting will be lost next time you transition to the "bright" period. I don't think there's really a good answer, other than to override the values totally in the plugin (ie, have a bright and a dim value in the plugin UI), but that makes for a very confusing UI. Argh.... The other choice would be to move this stuff into the server proper. That would be the now closed bug 1850 (http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1850 ) for those of you keeping score at home.
