Auto Display needs some minor changes to allow you to change the dim
time via CLI (you can change the preference with the CLI, but Auto
Display currently won't re-assess its "next run" schedule in response to
a preference change via CLI). 

Have you looked at Gordon Harris' SvrPowerControl plugin
(http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521)? I'm not sure
what you hope to achieve with Auto Display, but there's a good chance
that Gordon's plugin will be of interest to you -- many people use it to
make Squeezeboxes handle server shutdowns more gracefully.
