Yes, we can use that approach on unity-settings-daemon, with some minor modification to make xbacklight works. My intention to make it configurable is because there was a Braswell laptop with a cheap panel, which needs at least 5% max brightness to make it barely visible. For OEM projects, to solv

So if you run into that situation, discovering that this is configurable and changing the configuration seems equally hard (or harder). I can understand the heuristics what was done upstream in gnome-settings- daemon (see linked bug) to generally clam the brightness to >= 1 if there are many steps.

There are some scenarios make turning off brightness not desirable, e.g. an AIO user changes brightness to the lowest level in unity-control- center, he can't change it back if his keyboard does not have brightness hotkey. Since we can't ensure that all graphics driver have the same mechanism and

Hey, a small update. Lantern test v2 tests exactly what happens when brightness is set to 0. I have 10 samples so far and I will be able to analyze them today.

Hey. I'm researching the behaviour of backlight in the wild and my current theory is that brightness of zero can equally well mean "dim" or "totally off". I don't have a test for that yet so the sample range is very small (the hardware I have at home + several contributions from the community) but
